the utterance of the man exalted by the Most High,

the man anointed by the God of Jacob,

the hero of Israel’s songs:

2 “The Spirit of the Lord spoke through me;

his word was on my tongue.

1 Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse said, And the man who was raised up on high, The anointed of the God of Jacob, And the sweet psalmist of Israel, said, 2 The Spirit of the Lord spake by me, And his word was in my tongue.

1 These are the last words of David:

2 “The Spirit of the Lord speaks through me;

his words are upon my tongue.

1 Now these are the last words of David.

Thus says David the son of Jesse;

Thus says the man raised up on high,

The anointed of the God of Jacob,

And the sweet psalmist of Israel:

2 “The Spirit of the Lord spoke by me,

And His word was on my tongue.

1 These are the last words of David.

The man made great by the Most High God speaks.

He is the appointed king of the God of Jacob;

he is the sweet singer of Israel:

2 “The Lord’s Spirit spoke through me,

and his word was on my tongue.

1 Now these are the last words of David.

David the son of Jesse saith,

And the man who was raised on high saith,

The anointed of the God of Jacob,

And the sweet psalmist of Israel:

2 The Spirit of Jehovah spake by me,

And his word was upon my tongue.

1 Now these are the last words of David: David the son of Jesse saith, And the man who was raised up on high, The anointed of the God of Jacob, And the sweet psalmist of Israel saith, 2 The Spirit of Jehovah spoke by me, And his word was on my tongue.

1 These are the last words of David: 

“Here is the declaration by David, son of Jesse— 

the declaration by the man whom God raised up,

whom the God of Jacob anointed, 

the singer of Israel’s psalms: 

2 “The Spirit of the Lord spoke through me. 

His words were on my tongue. 

1 These are the last words of David:

The declaration of David son of Jesse,

the declaration of the man raised on high,

the one anointed by the God of Jacob,

the favorite singer of Israel:

2 The Spirit of the Lord spoke through me,

His word was on my tongue.

1 Now these are the last words of David:

The oracle of David, son of Jesse,

the oracle of the man whom God exalted,

the anointed of the God of Jacob,

the favorite of the Strong One of Israel:

2 The spirit of the Lord speaks through me,

his word is upon my tongue.

1 These are the last words of David, the declaration of David the son of Jesse, and the declaration of the man exalted by the Most High, the anointed one of the God of Jacob and the darling of the songs of Israel. 2 “The spirit of Yahweh speaks through me, and his word is upon my tongue.

1 Here are David’s last words. He said,

“I am David, the son of Jesse. God has given me a message.

The Most High God has greatly honored me.

The God of Jacob anointed me as king.

I am Israel’s singer of songs.

2 “The Spirit of the Lord spoke through me.

I spoke his word with my tongue.

1 Now these are the last words of David.

David the son of Jesse declares,

The man who was raised on high declares,

The anointed of the God of Jacob,

And the sweet psalmist of Israel,

2 “The Spirit of the Lord spoke by me,

And His word was on my tongue.
