Psalm 45 - Douy-Rheims Bible Challoner Revision

¹ Myrrh and stacte and cassia perfume thy garments, from the ivory houses: out of which

² the daughters of kings have delighted thee in thy glory. The queen stood on thy right hand, in gilded clothing; surrounded with variety.

³ 0 Hearken, O daughter, and see, and incline thy ear: and forget thy people and thy father's house.

⁴ 1 And the king shall greatly desire thy beauty; for he is the Lord thy God, and him they shall adore.

⁵ 2 And the daughters of Tyre with gifts, yea, all the rich among the people, shall entreat thy countenance.

⁶ 3 All the glory of the king's daughter is within in golden borders,

⁷ 4 clothed round about with varieties. After her shall virgins be brought to the king: her neighbours shall be brought to thee.

⁸ 5 They shall be brought with gladness and rejoicing: they shall be brought into the temple of the king.

⁹ 6 Instead of thy fathers, sons are born to thee: thou shalt make them princes over all the earth.

¹⁰ 7 They shall remember thy name throughout all generations. Therefore shall people praise thee for ever; yea, for ever and ever.

¹¹ Unto the end, for the sons of Core, for the hidden. Our God is our refuge and strength: a helper in troubles, which have found us exceedingly.

¹² Therefore we will not fear, when the earth shall be troubled; and the mountains shall be removed into the heart of the sea.

¹³ Their waters roared and were troubled: the mountains were troubled with his strength.

¹⁴ The stream of the river maketh the city of God joyful: the most High hath sanctified his own tabernacle.

¹⁵ God is in the midst thereof, it shall not be moved: God will help it in the morning early.

¹⁶ Nations were troubled, and kingdoms were bowed down: he uttered his voice, the earth trembled.

¹⁷ The Lord of armies is with us: the God of Jacob is our protector.
