MY heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015142">2</a>. Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015143">3</a>. Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015144">4</a>. And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015145">5</a>. Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under thee.</li>
