1(18) For the end, a Psalm of David, the servant of the Lord; the words which he spoke to the Lord, even the words of this Song, in the day in which the Lord delivered him out the hand of all his enemies, and out the hand of Saul: and he said: I will love you, O Lord, my strength.
2The Lord is my firm support, and my refuge, and my deliverer; my God is my helper, I will hope in him; he is my defender, and the horn of my salvation, and my helper.
3I will call upon the Lord with praises, and I shall be saved from my enemies.
4The pangs of death compassed me, and the torrents of ungodliness troubled me exceedingly.
5The pangs of hell came round about me: the snares of death prevented me.
