A Psalm of David.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
 |
| Psalm 144:1 |
|
Blessed be Jehovah my rock, Who teacheth my
hands to war, And my fingers to fight: |
|
|
|
|
| Psalm 144:2 |
|
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. |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 144:3 |
|
Jehovah, what is man, that thou takest knowledge
of him? Or the son of man, that thou makest account of him? |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 144:4 |
|
Man is like to vanity: His days are as a shadow
that passeth away. |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 144:5 |
|
Bow thy heavens, O Jehovah, and come down: Touch
the mountains, and they shall smoke. |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 144:6 |
|
Cast forth lightning, and scatter them; Send
out thine arrows, and discomfit them. |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 144:7 |
|
Stretch forth thy hand from above; Rescue me,
and deliver me out of great waters, Out of the hand of aliens; |
|
|
|
| Psalm 144:8 |
|
Whose mouth speaketh deceit, And whose right
hand is a right hand of falsehood. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 144:9 |
|
I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: Upon
a psaltery of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 144:10 |
|
Thou art he that giveth salvation unto kings;
Who rescueth David his servant from the hurtful sword. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 144:11 |
|
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.
|
|
|
|
| Psalm 144:12 |
|
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;
|
|
|
|
| Psalm 144:13 |
|
When our garners are full, affording all manner
of store, And our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields;
|
|
|
|
| Psalm 144:14 |
|
When our oxen are well laden; When there is
no breaking in, and no going forth, And no outcry in our streets: |
|
|
|
| Psalm 144:15 |
|
Happy is the people that is in such a case;
Yea, happy is the people whose God is Jehovah. |
