Of old you spoke in a vision to your godly one, and said: “I have granted help to one who is mighty; I have exalted one chosen from the people. I have found David, my servant; with my holy oil I have anointed him, so that my hand shall be established with him; my arm also shall strengthen him. The enemy shall not outwit him; the wicked shall not humble him. I will crush his foes before him and strike down those who hate him.
You chose David, the one of whom is is said that he was a man after Your own heart, You exulted him from shepherd boy to ruler of Your people, You went before him, crushing his foes and establishing his kingdom. You gifted him with a power of expressing himself to You that has been preserved to this day in the Psalms and which continues to bless Your people
