Psalms 144:2-8

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.

⁶Send forth lightning, and scatter them, Send forth Thine arrows, and trouble them,

⁷Send forth Thy hand from on high, Free me, and deliver me from many waters, From the hand of sons of a stranger,

⁸Because their mouth hath spoken vanity, And their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
