@To the chief
Musician
, A Psalm of
David
, the
servant
of the
LORD
, who
spake
unto the
LORD
the
words
of this
song
in the
day
that the
LORD
delivered
him from the
hand
of all his
enemies
, and from the
hand
of
Saul
: And he
said
,I will
love
thee, O
LORD
, my
strength
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:2
@ The
LORD
is my
rock
, and my
fortress
, and my
deliverer
; my
God
, my
strength
, in whom I will
trust
; my
buckler
, and the
horn
of my
salvation
, and my high
tower
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:3
@ I will
call
upon the
LORD
, who is worthy to be
praised
: so shall I be
saved
from mine
enemies
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:4
@ The
sorrows
of
death
compassed
me, and the
floods
of ungodly
men
made me
afraid
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:5
@ The
sorrows
of
hell
compassed me
about
: the
snares
of
death
prevented
me.
strkjv@Psalms:18:6
@ In my
distress
I
called
upon the
LORD
, and
cried
unto my
God
: he
heard
my
voice
out of his
temple
, and my
cry
came
before
him, even into his
ears
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:7
@ Then the
earth
shook
and
trembled
; the
foundations
also of the
hills
moved
and were
shaken
, because he was
wroth
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:8
@ There went
up
a
smoke
out of his
nostrils
, and
fire
out of his
mouth
devoured
:
coals
were
kindled
by it.
strkjv@Psalms:18:9
@ He
bowed
the
heavens
also, and came
down
: and
darkness
was under his
feet
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:10
@ And he
rode
upon a
cherub
, and did
fly
: yea, he did
fly
upon the
wings
of the
wind
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:11
@ He
made
darkness
his secret
place
; his
pavilion
round
about
him were
dark
waters
and thick
clouds
of the
skies
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:12
@ At the
brightness
that was before him his thick
clouds
passed
,
hail
stones and
coals
of
fire
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:13
@ The
LORD
also
thundered
in the
heavens
, and the
Highest
gave
his
voice
;
hail
stones and
coals
of
fire
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:14
@ Yea, he sent
out
his
arrows
, and
scattered
them; and he shot
out
lightnings
, and
discomfited
them.
strkjv@Psalms:18:15
@ Then the
channels
of
waters
were
seen
, and the
foundations
of the
world
were
discovered
at thy
rebuke
g@, O
LORD
, at the
blast
of the
breath
of thy
nostrils
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:16
@ He
sent
from
above
, he
took
me, he
drew
me out of
many
waters
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:17
@ He
delivered
me from my
strong
enemy
, and from them which
hated
me: for they were too
strong
for me.
strkjv@Psalms:18:18
@ They
prevented
me in the
day
of my
calamity
: but the
LORD
was my
stay
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:19
@ He brought me
forth
also into a large
place
; he
delivered
me, because he
delighted
in me.
strkjv@Psalms:18:20
@ The
LORD
rewarded
me according to my
righteousness
; according to the
cleanness
of my
hands
hath he
recompensed
me.
strkjv@Psalms:18:21
@ For I have
kept
the
ways
of the
LORD
, and have not wickedly
departed
from my
God
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:22
@ For all his
judgments
were before me, and I did not put
away
his
statutes
from me.
strkjv@Psalms:18:23
@ I was also
upright
before him, and I
kept
myself from mine
iniquity
.

recompensed
me according to my
righteousness
, according to the
cleanness
of my
hands
in his
eyesight

merciful
thou wilt shew thyself
merciful

upright
man

@ With the
pure
thou wilt shew thyself
pure
; and with the
froward
thou wilt shew thyself
froward
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:27
@ For thou wilt
save
the
afflicted
people
; but wilt bring
down
high
looks
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:28
@ For thou wilt
light
my
candle
: the
LORD
my
God
will
enlighten
my
darkness
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:29
@ For by thee I have run
through
a
troop
; and by my
God
have I leaped
over
a
wall
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:30
@ As for
God
, his
way
is
perfect
: the
word
of the

is
tried
: he is a
buckler
to all those that
trust
in him.

that
girdeth
me with

maketh
my
feet
like

teacheth
my
hands
to
war
, so that a
bow
of
steel
is
broken
by mine
arms
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:35

given
me the
shield
of thy
salvation

up
, and thy
gentleness
hath made me
great
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:36

enlarged
my
steps
under me, that my
feet
did not
slip
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:37
@ I have
pursued
mine
enemies
, and
overtaken
them: neither did I turn
again
till they were
consumed
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:38
@ I have
wounded
them that they were not
able
to
rise
: they are
fallen
under my
feet
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:39
@ For thou hast
girded
me with
strength
unto the
battle
: thou hast
subdued
under me those that rose
up
against me.
strkjv@Psalms:18:40
@ Thou hast also
given
me the
necks
of mine
enemies
; that I might
destroy
them that
hate
me.

@ They
cried
, but there was none to
save
them: even unto the
LORD
, but he
answered
them not.
strkjv@Psalms:18:42
@ Then did I
beat
them small as the
dust
before
the
wind
: I did cast them
out
as the
dirt
in the
streets
.
strkjv@Psalms:18:43
@ Thou hast
delivered
me from the
strivings
of the
people
; and thou hast
made
me the
head
of the
heathen

people
whom I have not
known
shall
serve
me.
strkjv@Psalms:18:44

hear
of me, they shall
obey
me: the
strangers
shall
submit
themselves unto me.

strangers
shall fade
away
, and be
afraid
out of their close
places
.

violent
man
