## Yahweh Is Our Help and Our Shield
|
|
|
|
###### 1
|
|
Sing for joy in Yahweh, O righteous ones; Praise is becoming to the upright.
|
|
|
|
###### 2
|
|
Give thanks to Yahweh with the lyre; Sing praises to Him with a harp of ten strings.
|
|
|
|
###### 3
|
|
Sing to Him a new song; Play skillfully with a loud shout.
|
|
|
|
###### 4
|
|
For the word of Yahweh is upright, And all His work is _done_ in faithfulness.
|
|
|
|
###### 5
|
|
He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the lovingkindness of Yahweh.
|
|
|
|
###### 6
|
|
By the word of Yahweh the heavens were made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host.
|
|
|
|
###### 7
|
|
He gathers the waters of the sea as a heap; He lays up the deeps in storehouses.
|
|
|
|
###### 8
|
|
Let all the earth fear Yahweh; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
|
|
|
|
###### 9
|
|
For He spoke, and it was; He commanded, and it stood.
|
|
|
|
###### 10
|
|
Yahweh nullifies the counsel of the nations; He frustrates the thoughts of the peoples.
|
|
|
|
###### 11
|
|
The counsel of Yahweh stands forever, The thoughts of His heart from generation to generation.
|
|
|
|
###### 12
|
|
Blessed is the nation whose God is Yahweh, The people whom He has chosen for His own inheritance.
|
|
|
|
###### 13
|
|
Yahweh looks from heaven; He sees all the sons of men;
|
|
|
|
###### 14
|
|
From the place of His habitation He gazes On all the inhabitants of the earth,
|
|
|
|
###### 15
|
|
He who forms the hearts of them all, He who understands all their works.
|
|
|
|
###### 16
|
|
The king is not saved by a mighty army; A warrior is not delivered by great strength.
|
|
|
|
###### 17
|
|
A horse is a false hope for salvation; Nor does it provide escape to anyone by its great strength.
|
|
|
|
###### 18
|
|
Behold, the eye of Yahweh is on those who fear Him, On those who wait for His lovingkindness,
|
|
|
|
###### 19
|
|
To deliver their soul from death And to keep them alive in famine.
|
|
|
|
###### 20
|
|
Our soul is patient for Yahweh; He is our help and our shield.
|
|
|
|
###### 21
|
|
For our heart is glad in Him, Because we trust in His holy name.
|
|
|
|
###### 22
|
|
Let Your lovingkindness, O Yahweh, be upon us, As we wait for You.
