Context of Psalms 45:9
7Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy companions. 8All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, by which they have made thee glad. Kings’ daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand stood the queen in gold of Ophir. 10Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thy ear; forget also thy own people, and thy father’s house; 11So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him.
