¹ H5329 To the chief Musician [H8764]   H1732 , A Psalm of David H5650 , the servant H3068 of the LORD H1696 , who spake [H8765]   H3068 unto the LORD H1697 the words H7892 of this song H3117 in the day H3068 that the LORD H5337 delivered [H8689]   H3709 him from the hand H341 of all his enemies [H8802]   H3027 , and from the hand H7586 of Saul H559 : And he said [H8799]   H7355 , I will love [H8799]   H3068 thee, O LORD H2391 , my strength.

² H3068 The LORD H5553 is my rock H4686 , and my fortress H6403 , and my deliverer [H8764]   H410 ; my God H6697 , my strength H2620 , in whom I will trust [H8799]   H4043 ; my buckler H7161 , and the horn H3468 of my salvation H4869 , and my high tower.

³ H7121 I will call [H8799]   H3068 upon the LORD H1984 , who is worthy to be praised [H8794]   H3467 : so shall I be saved [H8735]   H341 from mine enemies [H8802]  .

⁴ H2256 The sorrows H4194 of death H661 compassed [H8804]   H5158 me, and the floods H1100 of ungodly men H1204 made me afraid [H8762]  .

⁵ H2256 The sorrows H7585 of hell H5437 compassed me about [H8804]   H4170 : the snares H4194 of death H6923 prevented [H8765]   me.

⁶ H6862 In my distress H7121 I called [H8799]   H3068 upon the LORD H7768 , and cried [H8762]   H430 unto my God H8085 : he heard [H8799]   H6963 my voice H1964 out of his temple H7775 , and my cry H935 came [H8799]   H6440 before H241 him, even into his ears.

⁷ H776 Then the earth H1607 shook [H8799]   H7493 and trembled [H8799]   H4146 ; the foundations H2022 also of the hills H7264 moved [H8799]   H1607 and were shaken [H8691]   H2734 , because he was wroth [H8804]  .

⁸ H5927 There went up [H8804]   H6227 a smoke H639 out of his nostrils H784 , and fire H6310 out of his mouth H398 devoured [H8799]   H1513 : coals H1197 were kindled [H8804]   by it.

⁹ H5186 He bowed [H8799]   H8064 the heavens H3381 also, and came down [H8799]   H6205 : and darkness H7272 was under his feet.

¹⁰ H7392 And he rode [H8799]   H3742 upon a cherub H5774 , and did fly [H8799]   H1675 : yea, he did fly [H8799]   H3671 upon the wings H7307 of the wind.

¹¹ H7896 He made [H8799]   H2822 darkness H5643 his secret place H5521 ; his pavilion H5439 round about H2824 him were dark H4325 waters H5645 and thick clouds H7834 of the skies.

¹² H5051 At the brightness H5645 that was before him his thick clouds H5674 passed [H8804]   H1259 , hail H1513 stones and coals H784 of fire.

¹³ H3068 The LORD H7481 also thundered [H8686]   H8064 in the heavens H5945 , and the Highest H5414 gave [H8799]   H6963 his voice H1259 ; hail H1513 stones and coals H784 of fire.

¹⁴ H7971 Yea, he sent out [H8799]   H2671 his arrows H6327 , and scattered [H8686]   H7232 them; and he shot out [H8804]   H1300 lightnings H2000 , and discomfited [H8799]   them.

¹⁵ H650 Then the channels H4325 of waters H7200 were seen [H8735]   H4146 , and the foundations H8398 of the world H1540 were discovered [H8735]   H1606 at thy rebuke H3068 , O LORD H5397 , at the blast H7307 of the breath H639 of thy nostrils.

¹⁶ H7971 He sent [H8799]   H4791 from above H3947 , he took [H8799]   H4871 me, he drew [H8686]   H7227 me out of many H4325 waters.

¹⁷ H5337 He delivered [H8686]   H5794 me from my strong H341 enemy [H8802]   H8130 , and from them which hated [H8802]   H553 me: for they were too strong [H8804]   for me.

¹⁸ H6923 They prevented [H8762]   H3117 me in the day H343 of my calamity H3068 : but the LORD H4937 was my stay.

¹⁹ H3318 He brought me forth [H8686]   H4800 also into a large place H2502 ; he delivered [H8762]   H2654 me, because he delighted [H8804]   in me.

²⁰ H3068 The LORD H1580 rewarded [H8799]   H6664 me according to my righteousness H1252 ; according to the cleanness H3027 of my hands H7725 hath he recompensed [H8686]   me.

²¹ H8104 For I have kept [H8804]   H1870 the ways H3068 of the LORD H7561 , and have not wickedly departed [H8804]   H430 from my God.

²² H4941 For all his judgments H5493 were before me, and I did not put away [H8686]   H2708 his statutes from me.

²³ H8549 I was also upright H8104 before him, and I kept [H8691]   H5771 myself from mine iniquity.

²⁴ H3068 Therefore hath the LORD H7725 recompensed [H8686]   H6664 me according to my righteousness H1252 , according to the cleanness H3027 of my hands H5869 in his eyesight.

²⁵ H2623 With the merciful H2616 thou wilt shew thyself merciful [H8691]   H8549 ; with an upright H1399 man H8552 thou wilt shew thyself upright [H8691]  ;

²⁶ H1305 With the pure [H8737]   H1305 thou wilt shew thyself pure [H8691]   H6141 ; and with the froward H6617 thou wilt shew thyself froward [H8691]  .

²⁷ H3467 For thou wilt save [H8686]   H6041 the afflicted H5971 people H8213 ; but wilt bring down [H8686]   H7311 high [H8802]   H5869 looks.

²⁸ H215 For thou wilt light [H8686]   H5216 my candle H3068 : the LORD H430 my God H5050 will enlighten [H8686]   H2822 my darkness.

²⁹ H7323 For by thee I have run through [H8799]   H1416 a troop H430 ; and by my God H1801 have I leaped over [H8762]   H7791 a wall.

³⁰ H410 As for God H1870 , his way H8549 is perfect H565 : the word H3068 of the LORD H6884 is tried [H8803]   H4043 : he is a buckler H2620 to all those that trust [H8802]   in him.

³¹ H433 For who is God H1107 save H3068 the LORD H6697 ? or who is a rock H2108 save H430 our God?

³² H410 It is God H247 that girdeth [H8764]   H2428 me with strength H5414 , and maketh [H8799]   H1870 my way H8549 perfect.

³³ H7737 He maketh [H8764]   H7272 my feet H355 like hinds H5975 ' feet, and setteth [H8686]   H1116 me upon my high places.

³⁴ H3925 He teacheth [H8764]   H3027 my hands H4421 to war H7198 , so that a bow H5154 of steel H5181 is broken [H8765]   H2220 by mine arms.

³⁵ H5414 Thou hast also given [H8799]   H4043 me the shield H3468 of thy salvation H3225 : and thy right hand H5582 hath holden me up [H8799]   H6037 , and thy gentleness H7235 hath made me great [H8686]  .

³⁶ H7337 Thou hast enlarged [H8686]   H6806 my steps H7166 under me, that my feet H4571 did not slip [H8804]  .

³⁷ H7291 I have pursued [H8799]   H341 mine enemies [H8802]   H5381 , and overtaken [H8686]   H7725 them: neither did I turn again [H8799]   H3615 till they were consumed [H8763]  .

³⁸ H4272 I have wounded [H8799]   H3201 them that they were not able [H8799]   H6965 to rise [H8800]   H5307 : they are fallen [H8799]   H7272 under my feet.

³⁹ H247 For thou hast girded [H8762]   H2428 me with strength H4421 unto the battle H3766 : thou hast subdued [H8686]   H6965 under me those that rose up [H8801]   against me.

⁴⁰ H5414 Thou hast also given [H8804]   H6203 me the necks H341 of mine enemies [H8802]   H6789 ; that I might destroy [H8686]   H8130 them that hate [H8764]   me.

⁴¹ H7768 They cried [H8762]   H3467 , but there was none to save [H8688]   H3068 them: even unto the LORD H6030 , but he answered [H8804]   them not.

⁴² H7833 Then did I beat [H8799]   H6083 them small as the dust H6440 before H7307 the wind H7324 : I did cast them out [H8686]   H2916 as the dirt H2351 in the streets.

⁴³ H6403 Thou hast delivered [H8762]   H7379 me from the strivings H5971 of the people H7760 ; and thou hast made [H8799]   H7218 me the head H1471 of the heathen H5971 : a people H3045 whom I have not known [H8804]   H5647 shall serve [H8799]   me.

⁴⁴ H8088 As soon as they hear H241   H8085 of me, they shall obey [H8735]   H1121 me: the strangers H5236   H3584 shall submit [H8762]   themselves unto me.

⁴⁵ H1121 The strangers H5236   H5034 shall fade away [H8799]   H2727 , and be afraid [H8799]   H4526 out of their close places.

⁴⁶ H3068 The LORD H2416 liveth H1288 ; and blessed [H8803]   H6697 be my rock H430 ; and let the God H3468 of my salvation H7311 be exalted [H8799]  .

⁴⁷ H410 It is God H5414 that avengeth [H8802]   H5360   H1696 me, and subdueth [H8686]   H5971 the people under me.

⁴⁸ H6403 He delivereth [H8764]   H341 me from mine enemies [H8802]   H7311 : yea, thou liftest me up [H8787]   H6965 above those that rise up [H8801]   H5337 against me: thou hast delivered [H8686]   H2555 me from the violent H376 man.

⁴⁹ H3034 Therefore will I give thanks [H8686]   H3068 unto thee, O LORD H1471 , among the heathen H2167 , and sing praises [H8762]   H8034 unto thy name.

⁵⁰ H1431 Great [H8688]   H3444 deliverance H4428 giveth he to his king H6213 ; and sheweth [H8802]   H2617 mercy H4899 to his anointed H1732 , to David H2233 , and to his seed H5704 for H5769 evermore.
