I was small among my brethren, and a youth in my father's house; I fed my father's sheep.

My hands fashioned the organ, and my fingers composed the psaltery. Hallelujah.

Who is he that shall tell my Lord, He is the Lord who heareth those that cry unto Him.

He sent His angel, and took me from my father’s sheep and anointed me with the oil of His anointing. Hallelujah.

My brethren were handsome and taller than I, but the Lord took not pleasure in them.

I went out to meet the Philistine, and he cursed me by his idols.

But I drew his sword which was in his hand, and cut off his head.

And I removed the reproach from the children of Israel. Hallelujah.
