Blessed be Jehovah my rock, Who teacheth my hands to war, `And' my fingers to fight: |
2. |
My lovingkindness, and my fortress, My high tower, and my deliverer; My shield, and he in whom I take refuge; Who subdueth my people under me. |
3. |
Jehovah, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that thou makest account of him? |
4. |
Man is like to vanity: His days are as a shadow that passeth away. |
5. |
Bow thy heavens, O Jehovah, and come down: Touch the mountains, and they shall smoke. |
6. |
Cast forth lightning, and scatter them; Send out thine arrows, and discomfit them. |
7. |
Stretch forth thy hand from above; Rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, Out of the hand of aliens; |
8. |
Whose mouth speaketh deceit, And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood. |
9. |
I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: Upon a psaltery of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee. |
10. |
Thou art he that giveth salvation unto kings; Who rescueth David his servant from the hurtful sword. |
11. |
Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hand of aliens, Whose mouth speaketh deceit, And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood. |
12. |
When our sons shall be as plants grown up in their youth, And our daughters as corner-stones hewn after the fashion of a palace; |
13. |
`When' our garners are full, affording all manner of store, `And' our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields; |
14. |
`When' our oxen are well laden; `When there is' no breaking in, and no going forth, And no outcry in our streets: |
15. |
Happy is the people that is in such a case; `Yea', happy is the people whose God is Jehovah. Psalm 145 `A' `Psalm' `of' praise; of David. |
