Psalm 45:5-7
Authorized (King James) Version
5 Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies;
whereby the people fall under thee.
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.

by anointing(G) you with the oil of joy.(H)
