2 Samuel 23:2-4

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

² The spirit of the Lord speaks through me,
    his word is upon my tongue.
³ The God of Israel has spoken,
    the Rock of Israel has said to me:
One who rules over people justly,
    ruling in the fear of God,
⁴ is like the light of morning,
    like the sun rising on a cloudless morning,
    gleaming from the rain on the grassy land.
