Psalms 45
- 1 My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter; I speak the things which I have made touching the king: My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
- 2 Thou art fairer than the children of men; Grace is poured into thy lips: Therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
- 3 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one, Thy glory and thy majesty.
- 4 And in thy majesty ride on prosperously, Because of truth and meekness and righteousness: And thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.
- 5 Thine arrows are sharp; The peoples fall under thee; They arein the heart of the king’s enemies.
- 6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: A sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
- 7 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated 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 ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.
- 9 Kings’ daughters are among thy honorable women: At thy right hand doth 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 will the king desire thy beauty; For he is thy lord; and reverence thou him.
- 12 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; The rich among the people shall entreat thy favor.
- 13 The king’s daughter within the palace is all glorious: Her clothing is inwrought with gold.
- 14 She shall be led unto the king in broidered work: The virgins her companions that follow her Shall be brought unto thee.
- 15 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be led: They shall enter into the king’s palace.
- 16 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, Whom thou shalt make princes in all the earth.
- 17 I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: Therefore shall the peoples give thee thanks for ever and ever.

American Standard Version (asv - 2)
2021-02-18English (en)
The American Standard Version (ASV) of the Holy Bible is in the Public Domain. Please feel free to copy it, give it away, memorize it, publish it, sell it, or whatever God leads you to do with it.
The American Standard Version of 1901 is an Americanization of the English Revised Bible, which is an update of the KJV to less archaic spelling and greater accuracy of translation. It has been called "The Rock of Biblical Honesty." It is the product of the work of over 50 Evangelical Christian scholars.
While the ASV retains many archaic word forms, it is still more understandable to the modern reader than the KJV in many passages. The ASV also forms the basis for several modern English translations, including the World English Bible (http://www.eBible.org/bible/WEB), which is also in the Public Domain. The ASV uses "Jehovah" for Godߴs proper name. While the current consensus is that this Holy Name was more likely pronounced "Yahweh," it is refreshing to see this rendition instead of the overloading of the word "Lord" that the KJV, NASB, and many others do.
Pronouns referring to God are not capitalized in the ASV, as they are not in the NIV and some others, breaking the tradition of the KJV. Since Hebrew has no such thing as tense, and the oldest Greek manuscripts are all upper case, anyway, this tradition was based only on English usage around 1600, anyway. Not capitalizing these pronouns solves some translational problems, such as the coronation psalms, which refer equally well to an earthly king and to God.- Encoding: UTF-8
