Translation

justice and judgement are the preparation of your throne/ Mercy and truth shall go before your face:/ blessed is the people that know jubilation./ Lord they shall walk in the light of your countenance:/ and in your name they shall rejoice all the day:/ and they shall be exalted in your justice./ Psalm 88:20 Then you spoke in a vision/ Because you are the glory of their strength:/ and in your good pleasure our horn shall be exalted./ Because our reception is by the lord/ and our king the holy one of israhel./

THEN YOU SPO/KE in a vision to your holy ones:/ and you said I have placed help on a mighty one: and have exalted one chosen/ out of my people./ I have found david/ my servant: I have anointed him with my holy oil./ For my hand shall help him:/ and my arm shall strengthen him./ The enemy shall have no advantage over him:/
