4. He protected the people against brigandsand strengthened the city against the enemy.
5. How splendid he was as he looked out from the tent,as he came from behind the veil!
6. Like a star shining among the clouds,like the full moon at the festal season;
7. Like sun shining upon the temple of the King,like a rainbow appearing in the cloudy sky;
8. Like blossoms on the branches in springtime,like a lily by running waters;Like a green shoot on Lebanon in summer,
9. like the fire of incense at sacrifice;Like a vessel of hammered gold,studded with all kinds of precious stones;
10. Like a luxuriant olive tree heavy with fruit,a plant with branches abounding in oil;
