Chapter 45  
     
1.
My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
 
2.
Thou art more beautiful than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God has blessed you for ever.
 
3.
Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.
 
4.
And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach you terrible things.
 
5.
Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under thee.
 
6.
Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre.
 
7.
Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
 
8.
All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made you glad.
 
9.
Kings' daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
 
10.
Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline your ear; forget also your own people, and thy father's house;
 
11.
So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship you him.
 
12.
And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour.
 
13.
The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold.
 
14.
She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.
 
15.
With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace.
 
16.
Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom you may make princes in all the earth.
 
17.
I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise you for ever and ever.
