Psalms 45:3–7 · Berean Standard Bible

3 Strap your sword at your side, O mighty warrior; appear in your majesty and splendor.

4 In your splendor ride forth in victory on behalf of truth and humility and justice; may your right hand show your awesome deeds.

5 Your arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s foes; the nations fall beneath your feet.

6 Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever, and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom.

7 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you above your companions with the oil of joy.
