Psalms 45:5-11

⁵Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's haters; because of them the peoples are falling under you.

⁶Your seat of power, O God, is for ever and ever; the rod of your kingdom is a rod of honour.

⁷You have been a lover of righteousness and a hater of evil: and so God, your God, has put the oil of joy on your head, lifting you high over all other kings.

⁸Your robes are full of the smell of all sorts of perfumes and spices; music from the king's ivory houses has made you glad.

⁹Kings' daughters are among your noble women: on your right is the queen in gold of Ophir.

¹⁰O daughter, give thought and attention, and let your ear be open; no longer keep in mind your people, and your father's house;

¹¹So will the king have a great desire for you, seeing how beautiful you are; because he is your lord, give him honour.
