God's Word Translation

Psalms 45:1-7 God's Word Translation (GW)

1. My heart is overflowing with good news.I will direct my song to the king.My tongue is a pen for a skillful writer.

2. You are the most handsome of Adam’s descendants.Grace is poured on your lips.That is why God has blessed you forever.

3. O warrior, strap your sword to your sidewith your splendor and majesty.

4. Ride on victoriously in your majestyfor the cause of truth, humility, and righteousness.Let your right hand teach you awe-inspiring things.

5. Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies.Nations fall beneath you.

6. Your throne, O God, is forever and ever.The scepter in your kingdom is a scepter for justice.

7. You have loved what is right and hated what is wrong.That is why God, your God, has anointed you,rather than your companions, with the oil of joy.
