Pes(Lam)
The Gospel of James
GspJam
[1]MY heart bubbles forth good news and I will tell my deeds to the king; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. [No book]
[2]You are fairer than the children of men; grace is poured into your lips; therefore God has blessed you for ever. [No book]
[3]Gird your sword upon your thigh, O most mighty, with your glory and your majesty. [No book]
[4]Your majesty is triumphant; ride upon the word of truth and meekness and righteousness; your law is upheld by reverence for your right hand. [No book]
[5]Your arrows are sharp; let them pierce the heart of the king's enemies, and let the people fall under you. [No book]
[6]Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre. [No book]
[7]You love righteousness and hate wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows. [No book]
[8]All your garments smell of myrrh and aloes and cassia, out of the magnificent temple whereby they have made you glad. [No book]
[9]The king's daughter stands in glory, the queen stands at your right hand in gold of Ophir. [No book]
[10]Hearken, O my daughter, and consider and incline your ear; forget also your own people and your father's house. [No book]
[11]So shall the king greatly desire your beauty; for he is your lord; make obeisance to him. [No book]
[12]And the daughter of Tyre shall worship him; even the rich among the people shall seek your presence with gifts. [No book]
[13]All the glory of the king's daughter is from within; her clothing is adorned with fine gold. [No book]
[14]She shall be brought to the king with gifts; and her virgin companions shall follow in her train. [No book]
[15]With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought; they shall enter into the king's palace. [No book]
[16]Instead of your fathers shall be your sons; you shall make them princes in all the earth, [No book]
[17]I will make your name to be remembered in all generations; therefore shall the people praise you for ever and ever. [No book]
