Sounds fine to me.

Sounds fine to me, but the Hebrew word focuses on the drinks.

The Hebrew for "glory of his majesty" is "תפארת גדולתו", so I think "majesty" 
should be translated as "kamba'i".

Already present in jbovlaste in the form "boijme", which has a slightly better 
score.

Sounds fine to me. "boljmemai" is the best-scoring form, since "boijmemai" 
falls apart.
