A Psalm of David. Blessed be the LORD, my rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle; |
2
|
my rock and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield and he in whom I take refuge, who subdues the peoples under him. |
3
|
O LORD, what is man that thou dost regard him, or the son of man that thou dost think of him? |
4
|
Man is like a breath, his days are like a passing shadow. |
5
|
Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down! Touch the mountains that they smoke! |
6
|
Flash forth the lightning and scatter them, send out thy arrows and rout them! |
7
|
Stretch forth thy hand from on high, rescue me and deliver me from the many waters, from the hand of aliens, |
8
|
whose mouths speak lies, and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood. |
9
|
I will sing a new song to thee, O God; upon a ten-stringed harp I will play to thee, |
10
|
who givest victory to kings, who rescuest David thy servant. |
11
|
Rescue me from the cruel sword, and deliver me from the hand of aliens, whose mouths speak lies, and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood. |
12
|
May our sons in their youth be like plants full grown, our daughters like corner pillars cut for the structure of a palace; |
13
|
may our garners be full, providing all manner of store; may our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields; |
14
|
may our cattle be heavy with young, suffering no mischance or failure in bearing; may there be no cry of distress in our streets! |
15
|
Happy the people to whom such blessings fall! Happy the people whose God is the LORD! |
