\d A psalm of David.
|

\q
|
|
\v 1 Blessed be Yahweh, my rock,
|
|
\q who trains my hands for war
|
|
\q and my fingers for battle.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 2 You are my covenant faithfulness and my fortress,
|
|
\q my high tower and the one who rescues me,
|
|
\q my shield and the one in whom I take refuge,
|
|
\q the one who subdues nations under me.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 3 Yahweh, what is man that you take notice of him
|
|
\q or the son of man that you think about him?
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 4 Man is like a breath;
|
|
\q his days are like a passing shadow.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 5 Cause the sky to sink and come down, Yahweh;
|
|
\q touch the mountains and make them smoke.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 6 Send flashes of lightning and scatter my enemies;
|
|
\q shoot your arrows and drive them back in confusion.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 7 Reach out your hand from above;
|
|
\q rescue me out of many waters,
|
|
\q from the hand of foreigners.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 8 Their mouths speak lies,
|
|
\q and their right hand is falsehood.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 9 I will sing a new song to you, God;
|
|
\q on a lute of ten strings I will sing praises to you,
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 10 who give salvation to kings,
|
|
\q who rescued David your servant from an evil sword.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 11 Rescue me and free me from the hand of foreigners.
|
|
\q Their mouths speak lies,
|
|
\q and their right hand is falsehood.
|

|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 12 May our sons be like plants who grow to full size in their youth
|
|
\q and our daughters like carved corner pillars, shapely like those of a palace.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 13 May our storehouses be full with every kind of produce,
|
|
\q and may our sheep produce thousands and ten thousands in our fields.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 14 Then our oxen will have many young.
|
|
\q No one will break through our walls; there will be no exile
|
|
\q and no outcry in our streets.
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 15 Blessed is the people with such blessings;
|
|
\q happy is the people whose God is Yahweh.
