Psalm 45:6-12
New International Version
6 Your throne, O God,[a] will last for ever and ever;(A)
a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.

therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions
by anointing(D) you with the oil of joy.(E)
8 All your robes are fragrant(F) with myrrh(G) and aloes(H) and cassia;(I)
from palaces adorned with ivory(J)
the music of the strings(K) makes you glad.

at your right hand(M) is the royal bride(N) in gold of Ophir.(O)

Psalm 45:6-12
King James Version
6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre.
7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
8 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.
9 Kings' daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
10 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house;
11 So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him.
12 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour.
