Psalm 45.A Royal Wedding Song.

Beautiful words fill my mind,
as I compose this song for the king.
Like the pen of a good writer
my tongue is ready with a poem.

2 You are the most handsome of men;
you are an eloquent speaker.
God has always blessed you.

3 Buckle on your sword, mighty king;
you are glorious and majestic.

4 Ride on in majesty to victory
for the defense of truth and justice!
Your strength will win you great victories!

5 Your arrows are sharp,
they pierce the hearts of your enemies;
nations fall down at your feet.

6 The kingdom that God has given you
will last forever and ever.
You rule over your people with justice;

7 you love what is right and hate what is evil.
That is why God, your God, has chosen you
and has poured out more happiness…
