Psalm 45:5-7
Good News Translation
5 Your arrows are sharp,
they pierce the hearts of your enemies;
nations fall down at your feet.
6 (A)The kingdom that God has given you[a]
will last forever and ever.
You rule over your people with justice;
7 you love what is right and hate what is evil.
That is why God, your God, has chosen you
and has poured out more happiness on you
than on any other king.
