3 He played with lions as with kids, And with bears as with lambs of the flock.
4 In his youth did he not kill a giant, And take away reproach from the people, When he lifted up his hand with a sling stone, And beat down the boasting of Goliath?
5 For he called upon the Most High Lord; And he gave him strength in his right hand, To kill a man mighty in war, To exalt the horn of his people.
6 So they glorified him for his ten thousands, And praised him for the blessings of the Lord, In that there was given him a diadem of glory.
7 For he destroyed the enemies on every side, And brought to nothing the Philistines his adversaries, Brake their horn in pieces to this day.
8 In every work of his he gave thanks to the Holy One Most High with words of glory; With his whole heart he sang praise, And loved him that made him.
9 Also he set singers before the altar, And to make sweet melody by their music.
