2 Samuel 23:2 in context

1. 1Now these are the last words of David.
   David the son of Jesse says,
   the man who was raised on high says,
   the anointed of the God of Jacob,
   the sweet psalmist of Israel:
2. 2“Yahweh’s Spirit spoke by me.
   His word was on my tongue.
3. 3The God of Israel said,
   the Rock of Israel spoke to me,
   ‘One who rules over men righteously,
   who rules in the fear of God,
4. 4shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun rises,
   a morning without clouds,
   when the tender grass springs out of the earth,
   through clear shining after rain.’
