2 Samuel 23:1-5 And these are the last words of David: —`The affirmation of David son of Jesse—And the affirmation of the man raised up—Concerning the Anointed of the God of Jacob, And the Sweetness of the Songs of Israel:

YLT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And these are the last words of David: —`The affirmation of David son of Jesse—And the affirmation of the man raised up—Concerning the Anointed of the God of Jacob, And the Sweetness of the Songs of Israel: ² The Spirit of Jehovah hath spoken by me, And His word is on my tongue. ³ He said—the God of Israel—to me, He spake—the Rock of Israel: He who is ruling over man is righteous, He is ruling in the fear of God. ⁴ And as the light of morning he riseth, A morning sun—no clouds! By the shining, by the rain, Tender grass of the earth! ⁵ For—not so is my house with God; For—a covenant age-during He made with me, Arranged in all things, and kept; For—all my salvation, and all desire, For—He hath not caused it to spring up.
