Psalm 151 1, Orthodox

1:1

1:1 This Psalm is a genuine one of David, though supernumerary, composed when he fought in single combat with Goliath.

1:1 I was small among my brethren,
And youngest in my father's house:
I tended my father's sheep.

1:2 My hands formed a musical instrument,
And my fingers tuned a psaltery.

1:3 And who shall tell my Lord?
The Lord himself, He himself heareth.

1:5 My brothers were handsome and tall;
But the Lord did not take pleasure in them.

1:6 I went forth to meet the foreigner;
And he cursed me by his idols.

1:7 But I drew his own sword, and beheaded him,
And removed reproach from the sons of Israel.
