Psalms 45:1-5

¹In my inner being I am stirred by a beautiful message which will be sung to the king. The words of this message will be written with a pen by me, a skilled writer.

²O King, you are the most handsome man in the world, and you always speak MTY eloquently, because God has always blessed you.

³You who are a mighty warrior, put on your sword! You are glorious and majestic.

⁴Ride on like a great chief to defend the truth that you speak and the fair decisions that you make! Because you are strong MTY, you will do awesome deeds.

⁵Your arrows are sharp, and they pierce the hearts of your enemies. Soldiers of many nations will fall dead at your feet.
