2 Samuel 23:2-4

New International Version

² “The Spirit^(A) of the Lord spoke through me;
    his word was on my tongue.
³ The God of Israel spoke,
    the Rock^(B) of Israel said to me:
‘When one rules over people in righteousness,^(C)
    when he rules in the fear^(D) of God,^(E)
4 he is like the light^(F) of morning^(G) at sunrise^(H)
    on a cloudless morning,
like the brightness after rain^(I)
    that brings grass from the earth.’
