*
And he said : "
The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer ;
*
The God of my strength ,
in whom I will trust ;
My shield and the horn of my salvation ,
My stronghold and my refuge ;
My Savior ,
You save me from violence .
*
I will call upon the LORD ,
who is worthy to be praised ;
So shall I be saved from my enemies .
* "
When the waves of death surrounded me ,
The floods of ungodliness made me afraid .
*
The sorrows of Sheol surrounded me ;
The snares of death confronted me .
*
In my distress I called upon the LORD ,
And cried out to my God ;
He heard my voice from His temple ,
And my cry entered His ears .
* "
Then the earth shook and trembled ;
The foundations of heaven quaked and were shaken ,
Because He was angry .
*
Smoke went up from His nostrils ,
And devouring fire from His mouth ;
Coals were kindled by it .
*
He bowed the heavens also ,
and came down With darkness under His feet .
*
He rode upon a cherub ,
and flew ;
And He was seen upon the wings of the wind .
*
He made darkness canopies around Him ,
Dark waters and thick clouds of the skies .
*
From the brightness before Him Coals of fire were kindled .
* "
The LORD thundered from heaven ,
And the Most High uttered His voice .
*
He sent out arrows and scattered them ;
Lightning bolts ,
and He vanquished them .
*
Then the channels of the sea were seen ,
The foundations of the world were uncovered ,
At the rebuke of the LORD ,
At the blast of the breath of His nostrils .
* "
He sent from above ,
He took me ,
He drew me out of many waters .
*
He delivered me from my strong enemy ,
From those who hated me ;
For they were too strong for me .
*
They confronted me in the day of my calamity ,
But the LORD was my support .
*
He also brought me out into a broad place ;
He delivered me because He delighted in me .
* "
The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness ;
According to the cleanness of my hands He has recompensed me .
*
For I have kept the ways of the LORD ,
And have not wickedly departed from my God .
*
For all His judgments were before me ;
And as for His statutes ,
I did not depart from them .
*
I was also blameless before Him ,
And I kept myself from my iniquity .
*
Therefore the LORD has recompensed me according to my righteousness ,
According to my cleanness in His eyes .
* "
With the merciful You will show Yourself merciful ;
With a blameless man You will show Yourself blameless ;
*
With the pure You will show Yourself pure ;
And with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd .
*
You will save the humble people ;
But Your eyes are on the haughty ,
that You may bring them down .
* "
For You are my lamp ,
O LORD ;
The LORD shall enlighten my darkness .
*
For by You I can run against a troop ;
By my God I can leap over a wall .
*
As for God ,
His way is perfect ;
The word of the LORD is proven ;
He is a shield to all who trust in Him .
* "
For who is God ,
except the LORD ?
And who is a rock ,
except our God ?
