2 Samuel 22
1 And David spake unto YHWH the words of this song in the day that YHWH had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul:
And he spoke David to Yahweh [the] words of the song this on [the] day [when] he delivered Yahweh him from [the] hand of all enemies his and from [the] hand of Saul.
2 And he said, YHWH is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer;
And he said Yahweh [is] rock my and stronghold my and deliverer my to me.
3 The Elohim of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.
O God of rock my [whom] I take refuge in him shield my and [the] horn of salvation my refuge my and place of escape my O deliverer my from violence you deliver me.
4 I will call on YHWH, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
[the one] to be praised I called out to Yahweh and from enemies my I am delivered.
5 When the waves of death compassed me, the floods of wicked men made me afraid;
For they surrounded me [the] breakers of death torrents of worthlessness they overwhelmed me.
[the] cords of Sheol they surrounded me they confronted me [the] snares of death. (Sheol h7585)
7 In my distress I called upon YHWH, and cried to my Elohim: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.
When it was distress to me I called out to Yahweh and to God my I called out and he heard from temple his voice my and cry for help my [was] in ears his.
8 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was wroth.
(And it shook back and forth *Q(K)*) and it quaked the earth [the] foundations of the heavens they trembled and they shook back and forth for it burned to him.
9 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
It went up smoke in nose his and fire from mouth his it consumed coals they burned from him.
10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.
And he bowed [the] heavens and he came down and thick darkness [was] under feet his.
11 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
And he rode on a cherub and he flew and he appeared on [the] wings of [the] wind.
12 And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.
And he put darkness around him shelters a sieve of waters dark clouds of clouds.
13 Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.
From [the] brightness before him they burned coals of fire.
14 YHWH thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his voice.
He thundered from heaven Yahweh and [the] Most High he gave voice his.
15 And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
And he sent arrows and he scattered them [with] lightning (and he routed [them]. *Q(K)*)
16 And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of YHWH, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
And they appeared [the] channels of [the] sea they were uncovered [the] foundations of [the] world at [the] rebuke of Yahweh from [the] breathing of [the] breath of nose his.
17 He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;
He stretched out from a high place he took hold of me he drew me from waters many.
18 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
He rescued me from enemy my mighty from [those who] hate me for they were [too] strong for me.
19 They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but YHWH was my stay.
They confronted me in [the] day of calamity my and he was Yahweh a support of me.
20 He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
And he brought out to roomy place me he rescued me for he delighted in me.
21 YHWH rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
He dealt with me Yahweh according to righteousness my according to [the] cleanness of hands my he repaid to me.
22 For I have kept the ways of YHWH, and have not wickedly departed from my Elohim.
For I have kept [the] ways of Yahweh and not I have acted wickedly from God my.
23 For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.
For all (judgments his *Q(K)*) [are] to before me and statutes his not I turn aside from it.
24 I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity.
And I was blameless to him and I kept myself! from iniquity my.
25 Therefore YHWH hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.
And he repaid Yahweh to me according to righteousness my according to cleanness my to before eyes his.
26 With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright.
With a faithful [person] you show yourself faithful with a mighty [man] blameless you show yourself blameless.
27 With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury.
With [one who] purifies himself you show yourself pure and with a perverse [person] you show yourself twisted.
28 And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.
And a people afflicted you save and eyes your [are] on haughty [people] you bring [them] low.
29 For thou art my lamp, O YHWH: and YHWH will lighten my darkness.
For you [are] lamp my O Yahweh and Yahweh he lightens darkness my.
30 For by thee I have run through a troop: by my Elohim have I leaped over a wall.
For by you I run a marauding band by God my I leap over a wall.
31 As for El, his way is perfect; the word of YHWH is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.
God [is] blameless way his [the] word of Yahweh [is] refined [is] a shield he for all those [who] seek refuge in him.
32 For who is El, save YHWH? and who is a rock, save our Elohim?
For who? [is] God except Yahweh and who? [is] a rock except God our.
33 El is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.
God [is] place of refuge my strength and he set free a blameless [person] (way my. *Q(K)*)
34 He maketh my feet like hinds' feet: and setteth me upon my high places.
[he is] making (Feet my *Q(K)*) like does and on high places my he makes stand firm me.
35 He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.
[he has] trained Hands my for battle and it will stretch a bow of bronze arms my.
36 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great.
And you gave to me [the] shield of salvation your and answering your you make great me.
37 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not slip.
You enlarge step[s] my under me and not they slip ankles my.
38 I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them.
Let me pursue enemies my and I destroyed them and not I returned until brought to an end them.
39 And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they are fallen under my feet.
And I brought to an end them and I shattered them and not they will rise! and they fell under feet my.
40 For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against me hast thou subdued under me.
And you have girded me strength for battle you make bow down [those who] rise against me under me.
41 Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me.
And enemies my you have given to me a neck [those who] hate me and I destroyed them.
42 They looked, but there was none to save; even unto YHWH, but he answered them not.
They looked and there not [was] a deliverer to Yahweh and not he answered them.
43 Then did I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as the mire of the street, and did spread them abroad.
And I beat fine them like [the] dust of [the] earth like [the] mud of [the] streets I pulverized them I beat out them.
44 Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, thou hast kept me to be head of the heathen: a people which I knew not shall serve me.
And you rescued me from [the] strifes of people my you kept me to [the] head of [the] nations a people [whom] not I knew they served me.
45 Strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient unto me.
Sons of foreignness they cringed to me to hear an ear they became obedient to me.
46 Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places.
Sons of foreignness they withered and they may girdethemselves from strongholds their.
47 YHWH liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the Elohim of the rock of my salvation.
[is] living Yahweh and [be] blessed rock my and may he be exalted [the] God of [the] rock of salvation my.
48 El who avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me,
God [is] the [one who] gives vengeance to me and [is] bringing down peoples under me.
49 And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: thou also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
And [is] bringing out me from enemies my and from [those who] rise against me you lift up me from a man of violence you rescue me.
50 Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O YHWH, among the heathen, and I will sing praises unto thy name.
There-fore I will give thanks you O Yahweh among the nations and to name your I will sing praise.
51 He is the tower of salvation for his king: and sheweth mercy to his anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore.
([the] tower *Q(K)*) Of [the] salvation of king his and [who] does covenant loyalty to anointed his to David and to offspring his until perpetuity.
