Psalms 45:5 Context
3Gird thy sword vpon thy thigh, O most mightie: with thy glory and thy maiestie. 4And in thy maiestie ride prosperously, because of trueth and meekenes, and righteousnesse: and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things. 5Thine arrowes are sharpe in the heart of the Kings enemies; whereby the people fall vnder thee. 6Thy throne (O God) is for euer and euer: the scepter of thy kingdome is a right scepter. 7Thou louest righteousnesse, and hatest wickednesse: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oyle of gladnesse aboue thy fellowes.
