Psalms:144
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Blessed is Jehovah my Rock ,
who teaches my hands for war ,
and my fingers for battle ;
*
my goodness and my stronghold ,
my refuge and my deliverer ,
my shield and the One in whom I trust ,
who subdues my people under me .
*
Jehovah ,
what is man ,
that You take knowledge of him ?
Or the son of man ,
that You are mindful of him ?
*
Man is like a breath ;
his days are like a shadow that vanishes .
*
Bow down Your heavens ,
O Jehovah ,
and come down ;
touch the mountains ,
and they shall smoke .
*
Cast forth lightning and scatter them ;
shoot out Your arrows and destroy them .
*
Extend Your hand from above ;
rescue me and deliver me out of great waters ,
from the hand of the sons of foreigners ,
*
whose mouth speaks vanity ,
and whose right hand is a right hand of deception .
*
I will sing a new song unto You ,
O God ;
upon a lute and an instrument of ten strings I will make music unto You ,
*
the One who gives deliverance to kings ;
who rescues David His servant from the evil sword .
*
Rescue me and deliver me from the hand of the sons of foreigners ,
whose mouth speaks vanity ,
and whose right hand is a right hand of deception ;
*
that our sons may be as plants brought up in their youth ;
that our daughters may be like corner stones ,
carved in the form of a palace ;
*
that our granaries may be full ,
furnishing kind to kind ;
and our flocks may bring forth thousands and ten thousands outside ;
*
that our oxen may be laden ;
that there be no breaking in or going out ;
that there be no outcry in our streets .
*
Blessed are the people who are like this ;
blessed are the people whose God is Jehovah !
