A good and full translation by J. Kelly, 1867, p. 266, with a rather unusual combining of literality and metre, especially in stanza 9:
| Du salbst mein Haupt mit Oele Und füllest meine Seele, Die leer und dürstig sasze, Mit vollgeschenktem Masze. | My head with oil anointest My empty soul appointest Of every good and pleasure A full o'erflowing measure. |
