- 1. <By David.><br>
Blessed be Yahweh, my rock, who teaches my hands to war, and my fingers to battle: - 2. my loving kindness, my fortress, my high tower, my deliverer, my shield, and he in whom I take refuge; who subdues my people under me.
- 3. Yahweh, what is man, that you care for him? Or the son of man, that you think of him?
- 4. Man is like a breath. His days are like a shadow that passes away.
- 5. Part your heavens, Yahweh, and come down. Touch the mountains, and they will smoke.
- 6. Throw out lightning, and scatter them. Send out your arrows, and rout them.
- 7. Stretch out your hand from above, rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, out of the hands of foreigners;
- 8. whose mouths speak deceit, Whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
- 9. I will sing a new song to you, God. On a ten-stringed lyre, I will sing praises to you.
- 10. You are he who gives salvation to kings, who rescues David, his servant, from the deadly sword.
- 11. Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hands of foreigners, whose mouths speak deceit, whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
- 12. Then our sons will be like well-nurtured plants, our daughters like pillars carved to adorn a palace.
- 13. Our barns are full, filled with all kinds of provision. Our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields.
- 14. Our oxen will pull heavy loads. There is no breaking in, and no going away, and no outcry in our streets.
- 15. Happy are the people who are in such a situation. Happy are the people whose God is Yahweh. {}
