5 David called upon the Lord Most High,and the Lord gave strengthto his strong armto do away with a mighty warrior,to assert the power of his people.
6 For this, they glorified himin throngs of thousands.They praised him,calling down the Lord’s blessings,when they brought hima glorious crown.
7 David destroyed his enemieson every side,and he despised the Philistines,his adversaries;he shattered their power,which has never recovered.
8 In everything he did, he gave thanksto the holy one, the Most High,with glorious words.He sang hymns with all his heart,and he loved his maker.
9 He appointed singers with harpsbefore the altarto make sweet melody with their sounds.
10 He brought dignity to the festivals,and he adorned the whole cycleof sacred seasons,as they were praising God’s holy name,and from early morningthe sanctuary resounded.
11 The Lord took away David’s sins,and he exalted his power forever.He established his kingdom by agreement;and a glorious throne in Israel.
