Psalms 144:2-8

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.
