Psalm 151 This Psalm is a genuine one of David, though extra, composed when he fought in single combat with Goliath. I was small among my brothers, and youngest in my father’s house. I tended my father’s sheep.

WEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ This Psalm is a genuine one of David, though extra, composed when he fought in single combat with Goliath. I was small among my brothers, and youngest in my father’s house. I tended my father’s sheep. ² My hands formed a musical instrument, and my fingers tuned a lute. ³ Who shall tell my Lord? The Lord himself, he himself hears. ⁴ He sent forth his angel and took me from my father’s sheep, and he anointed me with his anointing oil. ⁵ My brothers were handsome and tall; but the Lord didn’t take pleasure in them. ⁶ I went out to meet the Philistine, and he cursed me by his idols. ⁷ But I drew his own sword and beheaded him, and removed reproach from the children of Israel.
