< Psalms 144 >
1 Of David - [be] blessed Yahweh - rock my who trains hands my for war fingers my for battle.
[A Psalm] of David. Blessed be Jehovah my rock, who teacheth my hands to war, my fingers to fight;
2 Covenant loyalty my and stronghold my refuge my and deliverer my to me shield my and in him I take refuge the [one who] subdues people my under me.
My mercy and my fortress, my high tower and my deliverer, my shield and he in whom I trust, who subdueth my people under me!
3 O Yahweh what? [is] humankind and you have considered him a child of humankind and you have regarded him.
Jehovah, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him, the son of man, that thou takest thought of him?
4 Humankind to breath he is like days his [are] like a shadow passing.
Man is like to vanity; his days are as a shadow that passeth away.
5 O Yahweh bend down heavens your so you may come down touch the mountains so they may smoke.
Jehovah, bow thy heavens, and come down; touch the mountains, that they smoke;
6 Flash lightning and you will scatter them send arrows your and you will rout them.
Cast forth lightnings, and scatter them; send forth thine arrows, and discomfit them:
7 Stretch out hands your from a high place set free me and deliver me from waters many from [the] hand of sons of foreignness.
Stretch out thy hands from above; rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of aliens,
8 Who mouth their it speaks falsehood and right [hand] their [is] a right [hand] of deception.
Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
9 O God a song new I will sing to you with a lyre of ten I will make music to you.
O God, I will sing a new song unto thee; with the ten-stringed lute will I sing psalms unto thee:
10 Who gives deliverance to kings who sets free David servant his from a sword evil.
Who givest salvation unto kings; who rescuest David thy servant from the hurtful sword.
11 Set free me and deliver me from [the] hand of sons of foreignness who mouth their it speaks falsehood and right [hand] their [is] a right [hand] of deception.
Rescue me, and deliver me from the hand of aliens, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
12 Who sons our - [will be] like plants full grown in youth their daughters our [will be] like corners carved [the] structure of a palace.
That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; our daughters as corner-columns, sculptured after the fashion of a palace:
13 Granaries our [will be] full providing from kind to kind flocks our [will be] producing thousands producing ten thousands in open places our.
Our granaries full, affording all manner of store; our sheep bringing forth thousands, ten thousands in our pastures;
14 Cattle[s] our [will be] loaded there not [will be] a breach and there not [will be] abortion and there not [will be] an outcry in open places our.
Our kine laden [with young]; no breaking in and no going forth, and no outcry in our streets.
15 How blessed! [is] the people that thus for it how blessed! [is] the people that Yahweh [is] God its.
Blessed the people that is in such a case! Blessed the people whose God is Jehovah!
