2 Samuel 23:1-3

New King James Version

Thus says David the son of Jesse;
Thus says ^(A)the man raised up on high,
^(B)The anointed of the God of Jacob,
And the sweet psalmist of Israel:

² “The^(C) Spirit of the Lord spoke by me,
And His word was on my tongue.
³ The God of Israel said,
^(D)The Rock of Israel spoke to me:
‘He who rules over men must be just,
Ruling ^(E)in the fear of God.
