45.8 :With the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
 * Myrrh, and aloes, and cassia are all thy garments;
 * Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.
 * Kings' daughters are among thy favourites;
 * At thy right hand doth stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
 * 'Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear;
 * Forget also thine own people, and thy father's house;
 * So shall the king desire thy beauty;
 * For he is thy lord; and do homage unto him.
 * And, O daughter of Tyre, the richest of the people
 * Shall entreat thy favour with a gift.'
 * All glorious is the king's daughter within the palace;
 * Her raiment is of chequer work inwrought with gold.
 * She shall be led unto the king on richly woven stuff;
 * The virgins her companions in her train being brought unto thee.
 * They shall be led with gladness and rejoicing;
 * They shall enter into the king's palace.
 * Instead of thy fathers shall be thy sons,
 * Whom thou shalt make princes in all the land.
 * I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations;
 * Therefore shall the peoples praise thee for ever and ever.

For the Leader; [a Psalm] of the sons of Korah; upon Alamoth. A Song.


 * God is our refuge and strength,
 * A very present help in trouble.
 * Therefore will we not fear, though the earth do change,
 * And though the mountains be moved into the heart of the seas;
 * Though the waters thereof roar and foam,
 * Though the mountains shake at the swelling thereof.


 * There is a river, the streams whereof make glad the city of God,
 * The holiest dwelling-place of the Most High.
 * God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved;
 * God shall help her, at the approach of morning.
 * Nations were in tumult, kingdoms were moved;
 * He uttered His voice, the earth melted.
 * The of hosts is with us;
 * The God of Jacob is our high tower.


 * Come, behold the works of the ,
 * Who hath made desolations in the earth.
 * He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth;
 * He breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder;
 * He burneth the chariots in the fire.
 * 'Let be, and know that I am God;
 * I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.'
 * The of hosts is with us;
 * The God of Jacob is our high tower.

For the Leader; a Psalm of the sons of Korah.


 * O clap your hands, all ye peoples;
 * Shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
