3 You are fairer than the children of men; grace is flowing through your lips; for this cause the blessing of God is with you for ever.
4 Put on your sword, make it ready at your side, O strong chief, with your glory and power.
5 And go nobly on in your power, because you are good and true and without pride; and your right hand will be teaching you things of fear.
6 Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's haters; because of them the peoples are falling under you.
7 Your seat of power, O God, is for ever and ever; the rod of your kingdom is a rod of honour.
8 You have been a lover of righteousness and a hater of evil: and so God, your God, has put the oil of joy on your head, lifting you high over all other kings.
9 Your robes are full of the smell of all sorts of perfumes and spices; music from the king's ivory houses has made you glad.
