1 Now these are the last words of David: The oracle of David the son of Jesse,the oracle of the man who was raised on high,the anointed of the God of Jacob,and the favorite psalmist of Israel:
2 The Spirit of the Lord spoke by me,and His word was on my tongue.
3 The God of Israel said,the Rock of Israel spoke to me:He who rules over man justly,who rules in the fear of God,
4 is like the light of the morning when the sun rises,a morning with no clouds,gleaming after the rainlike grass from the land.
5 Is not my house like this with God?For He made an everlasting covenant with me,ordered in all things and secure.For this is all my salvation and all my desire;will He not make it flourish?
