< Psalms 144 >

1 Of David - [be] blessed Yahweh - rock my who trains hands my for war fingers my for battle.
Blessed be Yhwh my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and 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 goodness, 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.
Yhwh, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account 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.
Bow thy heavens, O Yhwh, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
6 Flash lightning and you will scatter them send arrows your and you will rout them.
Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and destroy 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.
Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children;
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.
I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee.
10 Who gives deliverance to kings who sets free David servant his from a sword evil.
It is he that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David his 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.
Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, 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; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude 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.
That our garners may be full, affording all manner of store: that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets:
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.
That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets.
15 How blessed! [is] the people that thus for it how blessed! [is] the people that Yahweh [is] God its.
Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is Yhwh.
