Chapter 144 | |
1 | Blessed be the LORD my strength which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight: |
2 | My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me. |
3 | LORD, 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 LORD, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke. |
6 | Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and destroy them. |
7 | Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children; |
8 | Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood. |
9 | I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee. |
10 | It is he that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword. |
11 | Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood: |
12 | That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace: |
13 |
That our garners may be full, affording all manner of store: that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets: |
14 | That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets. |
15 | Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD. |
