1. My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.
2. You are the most excellent of men and your lips have been anointed with grace, since God has blessed you forever.
3. Gird your sword on your side, you mighty one; clothe yourself with splendor and majesty.
4. In your majesty ride forth victoriously in the cause of truth, humility and justice; let your right hand achieve awesome deeds.
