"Psalm 151:4-7, End of book of psalms"

End of the Book of Psalms: Psalm 151:4-7

 

TRANSLATION

 

He sent forth his angel and took me
from my father's sleep and he annointed me
with the oil of his annointing.
My brothers were handsome and tall, but the Lord
did not take pleasure in them.
I went forth to meet the Philistines,
and he cursed me by hid idols.
But I drew his own sword, and beheaded him
and removed reproach from the children of Israel.
