Psalms 144:2-13

²My lovingkindness, and my fortress, My high tower, and my deliverer; My shield, and he in whom I take refuge; Who subdueth my people under me.

³Jehovah, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that thou makest account of him?

⁴Man is like to vanity: His days are as a shadow that passeth away.

⁵Bow thy heavens, O Jehovah, and come down: Touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.

⁶Cast forth lightning, and scatter them; Send out thine arrows, and discomfit them.

⁷Stretch forth thy hand from above; Rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, Out of the hand of aliens;

⁸Whose mouth speaketh deceit, And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

⁹I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: Upon a psaltery of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee.

¹⁰Thou art he that giveth salvation unto kings; Who rescueth David his servant from the hurtful sword.

¹¹Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hand of aliens, Whose mouth speaketh deceit, And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

¹²When our sons shall be as plants grown up in their youth, And our daughters as corner-stones hewn after the fashion of a palace;

¹³When our garners are full, affording all manner of store, And our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields;
