- 1. I will loue thee, O Lord, my strength.
- 2. The Lord is my rocke, and my fortresse, and my deliuerer: my God, my strength in whome I will trust, my buckler, and the horne of my saluation, and my high tower.
- 3. I will call vpon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saued from mine enemies.
- 4. The sorrowes of death compassed me, and the floods of vngodly men made me afraid.
- 5. The sorrowes of hell compassed me about: the snares of death preuented me.
- 6. In my distresse I called vpon the Lord, and cryed vnto my God: hee heard my voyce out of his temple, and my crie came before him, euen into his eares.
- 7. Then the earth shooke and trembled; the foundations also of the hilles mooued and were shaken, because hee was wroth.
- 8. There went vp a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth deuoured, coales were kindled by it.
- 9. He bowed the heauens also, and came downe: and darkenesse was vnder his feet.
- 10. And he rode vpon a Cherub, and did flie: yea he did flie vpon the wings of the wind.
- 11. He made darkenes his secret place: his pauilion round about him, were darke waters, and thicke cloudes of the skies.
- 12. At the brightnes that was before him his thicke clouds passed, haile stones and coales of fire.
- 13. The Lord also thundered in the heauens, and the highest gaue his voyce; hailestones and coales of fire.
- 14. Yea, he sent out his arrowes, and scattered them; and he shot out lightnings, and discomfited them.
- 15. Then the chanels of waters were seene, and the foundations of the world were discouered: at thy rebuke, O Lord, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
- 16. He sent from aboue, he tooke me, he drew me out of many waters.
- 17. He deliuered me from my strong enemie, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.
- 18. They preuented me in the day of my calamitie: but the Lord was my stay.
- 19. He brought me forth also into a large place: he deliuered me, because he delighted in me.
- 20. The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousnesse, according to the cleannesse of my hands hath hee recompensed me.
- 21. For I haue kept the wayes of the Lord, and haue not wickedly departed from my God.
- 22. For all his iudgements were before me, and I did not put away his statutes from me.
- 23. I was also vpright before him: and I kept my selfe from mine iniquity.
- 24. Therefore hath the Lord recompensed me according to my righteousnesse, according to the cleannesse of my hands in his eye-sight.
- 25. With the mercifull thou wilt shew thy selfe mercifull, with an vpright man thou wilt shew thy selfe vpright.
- 26. With the pure thou wilt shewe thy selfe pure, and with the froward thou wilt shew thy selfe froward.
- 27. For thou wilt saue the afflicted people: but wilt bring downe high lookes.
- 28. For thou wilt light my candle: the Lord my God will enlighten my darkenesse.
- 29. For by thee I haue run through a troupe? and by my God haue I leaped ouer a wall.
- 30. As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.
- 31. For who is God saue the Lord? or who is a rocke saue our God?
- 32. It is God that girdeth mee with strength, and maketh my way perfect.
- 33. Hee maketh my feete like hindes feete, and setteth me vpon my high places.
- 34. He teacheth my hands to warre, so that a bow of steele is broken by mine armes.
- 35. Thou hast also giuen me the shield of thy saluation: and thy right hand hath holden me vp, and thy gentlenesse hath made me great.
- 36. Thou hast enlarged my steppes vnder me; that my feete did not slippe.
- 37. I haue pursued mine enemies, and ouertaken them: neither did I turne againe till they were consumed.
- 38. I haue wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen vnder my feete.
- 39. For thou hast girded mee with strength vnto the battell: thou hast subdued vnder me, those that rose vp against me.
- 40. Thou hast also giuen mee the neckes of mine enemies: that I might destroy them that hate me.
- 41. They cried, but there was none to saue them: euen vnto the Lord, but he answered them not.
- 42. Then did I beate them small as the dust before the winde: I did cast them out, as the dirt in the streetes.
- 43. Thou hast deliuered me from the striuings of the people, and thou hast made mee the head of the heathen: a people whom I haue not knowen, shall serue me.
- 44. As soone as they heare of mee, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselues vnto me.
- 45. The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.
- 46. The Lord liueth, and blessed be my rocke: and let the God of my saluation be exalted.
- 47. It is God that auengeth mee, and subdueth the people vnder me.
- 48. He deliuereth me from mine enemies: yea thou liftest mee vp aboue those that rise vp against me; thou hast deliuered me from the violent man.
- 49. Therfore will I giue thankes vnto thee, (O Lord) among the heathen: and sing prayses vnto thy name.
- 50. Great deliuerance giueth he to his King: and sheweth mercy to his Annointed, to Dauid, and to his seede for euermore.
