1For the Chief Musician. Set to “The Lilies.” A contemplation by the sons of Korah. A wedding song. My heart overflows with a noble theme. I recite my verses for the king. My tongue is like the pen of a skilful writer.
2You are the most excellent of the sons of men. Grace has anointed your lips, therefore God has blessed you forever.
3Strap your sword on your thigh, O mighty one, in your splendour and your majesty.
Psalms 45
Psalms 45:1-3
