Surge Domine, et dissipentur inimici tui; et fugiant qui oderunt te a facie tua. (Numbers 10:35)
A gold strip bearing a Biblical inscription in Latin is among the items recently discovered in what was once Mercia, one of five main Anglo-Saxon kingdoms.
The cache of gold and silver pieces is thought to date to between 675 and 725.
Yahoo! News reports Terry Herbert, an unemployed metal-detecting enthusiast, made the discovery on July 5, while scouring a friend's farm in the western region of Staffordshire.
Herbert said one expert likened his discovery to finding Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamen's tomb.
Herbert added: "I just flushed all over when he said that. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up".
Britain's archaeological community, said Thursday that it offers new insight into the world of the Anglo-Saxons.
The Anglo-Saxons were a group of Germanic tribes who invaded England starting in the wake of the collapse of the Roman Empire.
The Anglo-Saxons ruled England from the fifth century until the 1066 Norman invasion.
The gold band, which bears a Biblical inscription in Latin, calls on God to drive away the bearer's enemies.
"Rise up, LORD, and let thine enemies be scattered; and let them that hate thee flee before thee", see Numbers 10:35.
The Hoard comprises in excess 1.500 individual items.
Most are gold, although some are silver.
Many are decorated with precious stones.
The quality of the craftsmanship displayed on many items is supreme, indicating possible royal ownership.
The only items that are clearly non-martial are two, or possibly three, crosses.
The largest may have been an altar or processional cross.
A selection of the items is displayed at the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery until October 13, according to BBC News.
"Exsurgat Deus, et dissipentur inimici eius, et fugiant qui oderunt eum a facie eius", Psalm 67:2.
