- Praise be to the LORD my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle.
- He is my loving God and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield, in whom I take refuge, who subdues peoples under me.
- O LORD, what is man that you care for him, the son of man that you think of him?
- Man is like a breath; his days are like a fleeting shadow.
- Part your heavens, O LORD, and come down; touch the mountains, so that they smoke.
|
- Send forth lightning and scatter {the enemies}; shoot your arrows and rout them.
- Reach down your hand from on high; deliver me and rescue me from the mighty waters, from the hands of foreigners
- whose mouths are full of lies, whose right hands are deceitful.
