As budding branch (?) in the days of the solemn feast; And as the lotus by the watercourses. As flower of Lebanon in the days of summer; And as fire of incense upon the meal-offering:

In (or As) a gold plated vessel, and a chalice (or weighty), That is set with pleasant stones.

As a green olive full of berries; And as a wild olive tree with branches full of sap.

When he put on robes of honour; And clothed himself with robes of beauty. When he ascended the altar of majesty; And made glorious the precinct of the sanctuary.
