4Put on your sword, make it ready at your side, O strong chief, with your glory and power.
5And 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.
6Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's haters; because of them the peoples are falling under you.
7Your seat of power, O God, is for ever and ever; the rod of your kingdom is a rod of honour.
8You 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.
9Your robes are full of the smell of all sorts of perfumes and spices; music from the king's ivory houses has made you glad.
10Kings' daughters are among your noble women: on your right is the queen in gold of Ophir.
