Psalms 144:1-5

¹By David. Blessed is Jehovah my rock, who is teaching My hands for war, my fingers for battle.

²My kind one, and my bulwark, My tower, and my deliverer, My shield, and in whom I have trusted, Who is subduing my people under me!

³Jehovah, what is man that Thou knowest him? Son of man, that Thou esteemest him?

⁴Man to vanity hath been like, His days are as a shadow passing by.

⁵Jehovah, incline Thy heavens and come down, Strike against mountains, and they smoke.
