|

###### 1
|
||
|
|
Blessed be Yahweh, my rock, Who trains my hands for war, My fingers for battle;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 2
|
||
|
|
My lovingkindness and my fortress, My stronghold and my deliverer, My shield and He in whom I take refuge, Who subdues my people under me.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 3
|
||
|
|
O Yahweh, what is man, that You know him? Or the son of man, that You think of him?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 4
|
||
|
|
Man is like a breath; His days are like a passing shadow.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 5
|
||
|
|
O Yahweh, bow Your heavens, and come down; Touch the mountains, that they may smoke.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 6
|
||
|
|
Flash forth lightning and scatter them; Send out Your arrows and confuse them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 7
|
||
|
|
Send forth Your hand from on high; Set me free and deliver me out of many waters, Out of the hand of foreigners
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 8
|
||
|
|
Whose mouth speaks worthlessness, And whose right hand is a right hand of lying.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 9
|
||
|
|
O God, I will sing a new song to You; Upon a harp of ten strings I will sing praises to You,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 10
|
||
|
|
Who gives salvation to kings, Who sets David His servant free from the evil sword.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 11
|
||
|
|
Set me free and deliver me out of the hand of the sons of a foreigner, Whose mouth speaks worthlessness And whose right hand is a right hand of lying.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 12
|
||
|
|
That our sons would be as grown-up plants in their youth, And our daughters as corner pillars fashioned as for a palace;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 13
|
||
|
|
_That_ our granaries would be full, furnishing every kind of produce, _And_ our flocks would bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our _fields_ outside;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 14
|
||
|
|
That our cattle would bear Without mishap and without loss, And without outcry in our streets!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 15
|
||
|
|
How blessed are the people for whom this is so; How blessed are the people for whom God is Yahweh!
