And DavidH1732 spakeH1696 unto the LORDH3068 the wordsH1697 of this songH7892 in the dayH3117 that the LORDH3068 had deliveredH5337 him out of the handH3709 of all his enemiesH341, and out of the handH3709 of SaulH7586:
And he saidH559, The LORDH3068 is my rockH5553, and my fortressH4686, and my delivererH6403;
The GodH430 of my rockH6697; in him will I trustH2620: he is my shieldH4043, and the hornH7161 of my salvationH3468, my high towerH4869, and my refugeH4498, my saviourH3467; thou savestH3467 me from violenceH2555.
I will callH7121 on the LORDH3068, who is worthy to be praisedH1984: so shall I be savedH3467 from mine enemiesH341.
When the wavesH4867 of deathH4194 compassedH661 me, the floodsH5158 of ungodly menH1100 made me afraidH1204; {waves: or, pangs} {ungodly…: Heb. Belial}
The sorrowsH2256 of hellH7585 compassed me aboutH5437; the snaresH4170 of deathH4194 preventedH6923 me; {sorrows: or, cords}
In my distressH6862 I calledH7121 upon the LORDH3068, and criedH7121 to my GodH430: and he did hearH8085 my voiceH6963 out of his templeH1964, and my cryH7775 did enter into his earsH241.
Then the earthH776 shookH1607+H1607 and trembledH7493; the foundationsH4146 of heavenH8064 movedH7264 and shookH1607, because he was wrothH2734.
There went upH5927 a smokeH6227 out of his nostrilsH639, and fireH784 out of his mouthH6310 devouredH398: coalsH1513 were kindledH1197 by it. {out of his nostrils: Heb. by, etc}
He bowedH5186 the heavensH8064 also, and came downH3381; and darknessH6205 was under his feetH7272.
And he rodeH7392 upon a cherubH3742, and did flyH5774: and he was seenH7200 upon the wingsH3671 of the windH7307.
And he madeH7896 darknessH2822 pavilionsH5521 round aboutH5439 him, darkH2841 watersH4325, and thick cloudsH5645 of the skiesH7834. {dark…: Heb. binding of waters}
Through the brightnessH5051 before him were coalsH1513 of fireH784 kindledH1197.
The LORDH3068 thunderedH7481 from heavenH8064, and the most HighH5945 utteredH5414 his voiceH6963.
And he sent outH7971 arrowsH2671, and scatteredH6327 them; lightningH1300, and discomfitedH2000 them.
And the channelsH650 of the seaH3220 appearedH7200, the foundationsH4146 of the worldH8398 were discoveredH1540, at the rebukingH1606 of the LORDH3068, at the blastH5397 of the breathH7307 of his nostrilsH639.
He sentH7971 from aboveH4791, he tookH3947 me; he drewH4871 me out of manyH7227 watersH4325; {many: or, great}
He deliveredH5337 me from my strongH5794 enemyH341, and from them that hatedH8130 me: for they were too strongH553 for me.
They preventedH6923 me in the dayH3117 of my calamityH343: but the LORDH3068 was my stayH4937.
He brought me forthH3318 also into a large placeH4800: he deliveredH2502 me, because he delightedH2654 in me.
The LORDH3068 rewardedH1580 me according to my righteousnessH6666: according to the cleannessH1252 of my handsH3027 hath he recompensedH7725 me.
For I have keptH8104 the waysH1870 of the LORDH3068, and have not wickedly departedH7561 from my GodH430.
For all his judgmentsH4941 were before me: and as for his statutesH2708, I did not departH5493 from them.
I was also uprightH8549 before him, and have keptH8104 myself from mine iniquityH5771. {before: Heb. to}
Therefore the LORDH3068 hath recompensedH7725 me according to my righteousnessH6666; according to my cleannessH1252 in his eye sightH5048+H5869. {in…: Heb. before his eyes}
With the mercifulH2623 thou wilt shew thyself mercifulH2616, and with the uprightH8549 manH1368 thou wilt shew thyself uprightH8552.
With the pureH1305 thou wilt shew thyself pureH1305; and with the frowardH6141 thou wilt shew thyself unsavouryH6617. {shew thyself unsavoury: or, wrestle}
And the afflictedH6041 peopleH5971 thou wilt saveH3467: but thine eyesH5869 are upon the haughtyH7311, that thou mayest bring them downH8213.
For thou art my lampH5216, O LORDH3068: and the LORDH3068 will lightenH5050 my darknessH2822. {lamp: or, candle}
For by thee I have runH7323 through a troopH1416: by my GodH430 have I leaped overH1801 a wallH7791. {run: or, broken}
As for GodH410, his wayH1870 is perfectH8549; the wordH565 of the LORDH3068 is triedH6884: he is a bucklerH4043 to all them that trustH2620 in him. {tried: or, refined}
For who is GodH410, saveH1107 the LORDH3068? and who is a rockH6697, saveH1107 our GodH430?
GodH410 is my strengthH4581 and powerH2428: and he makethH5425 my wayH1870 perfectH8549. {maketh: Heb. riddeth, or, looseth}
He makethH7737 my feetH7272 likeH7737 hinds'H355 feet: and settethH5975 me upon my high placesH1116. {maketh: Heb. equalleth}
He teachethH3925 my handsH3027 to warH4421; so that a bowH7198 of steelH5154 is brokenH5181 by mine armsH2220. {to war: Heb. for the war}
Thou hast also givenH5414 me the shieldH4043 of thy salvationH3468: and thy gentlenessH6031+H6038 hath made me greatH7235. {made…: Heb. multiplied me}
Thou hast enlargedH7337 my stepsH6806 under me; so that my feetH7166 did not slipH4571. {feet: Heb. ankles}
I have pursuedH7291 mine enemiesH341, and destroyedH8045 them; and turned not againH7725 until I had consumedH3615 them.
And I have consumedH3615 them, and woundedH4272 them, that they could not ariseH6965: yea, they are fallenH5307 under my feetH7272.
For thou hast girdedH247 me with strengthH2428 to battleH4421: them that rose upH6965 against me hast thou subduedH3766 under me. {subdued: Heb. caused to bow}
Thou hast also givenH5414 me the necksH6203 of mine enemiesH341, that I might destroyH6789 them that hateH8130 me.
They lookedH8159, but there was none to saveH3467; even unto the LORDH3068, but he answeredH6030 them not.
Then did I beatH7833 them as small as the dustH6083 of the earthH776, I did stampH1854 them as the mireH2916 of the streetH2351, and did spread them abroadH7554.
Thou also hast deliveredH6403 me from the strivingsH7379 of my peopleH5971, thou hast keptH8104 me to be headH7218 of the heathenH1471: a peopleH5971 which I knewH3045 not shall serveH5647 me.
StrangersH1121+H5236 shall submitH3584 themselves unto me: as soon as they hearH8085+H241, they shall be obedientH8085 unto me. {Strangers: Heb. Sons of the stranger} {submit…: or, yield feigned obedience: Heb. lie}
StrangersH1121+H5236 shall fade awayH5034, and they shall be afraidH2296 out of their close placesH4526.
The LORDH3068 livethH2416; and blessedH1288 be my rockH6697; and exaltedH7311 be the GodH430 of the rockH6697 of my salvationH3468.
It is GodH410 that avengethH5414+H5360 me, and that bringeth downH3381 the peopleH5971 under me, {avengeth: Heb. giveth avengement for}
And that bringeth me forthH3318 from mine enemiesH341: thou also hast lifted me up on highH7311 above them that rose upH6965 against me: thou hast deliveredH5337 me from the violentH2555 manH376.
Therefore I will give thanksH3034 unto thee, O LORDH3068, among the heathenH1471, and I will sing praisesH2167 unto thy nameH8034.
He is the towerH4024+H1431 of salvationH3444 for his kingH4428: and shewethH6213 mercyH2617 to his anointedH4899, unto DavidH1732, and to his seedH2233 forH5704 evermoreH5769.

And the LORDH3068 saidH559, I have surelyH7200 seenH7200 the afflictionH6040 of my peopleH5971 which are in EgyptH4714, and have heardH8085 their cryH6818 by reasonH6440 of their taskmastersH5065; for I knowH3045 their sorrowsH4341;
For I will at this timeH6471 sendH7971 all my plaguesH4046 upon thine heartH3820, and upon thy servantsH5650, and upon thy peopleH5971; that thou mayest knowH3045 that there is none like me in all the earthH776.
For now I will stretch outH7971 my handH3027, that I may smiteH5221 thee and thy peopleH5971 with pestilenceH1698; and thou shalt be cut offH3582 from the earthH776.
And in veryH199 deedH5668 for this cause have I raised thee upH5975, for to shewH7200 in thee my powerH3581; and that my nameH8034 may be declaredH5608 throughout all the earthH776. {raised…: Heb. made thee stand}
As yet exaltestH5549 thou thyself against my peopleH5971, that thou wilt not let them goH7971?
And I am come downH3381 to deliverH5337 them out of the handH3027 of the EgyptiansH4714, and to bringH5927 them up out of that landH776 unto a goodH2896 landH776 and a largeH7342, unto a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706; unto the placeH4725 of the CanaanitesH3669, and the HittitesH2850, and the AmoritesH567, and the PerizzitesH6522, and the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983.
And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 came inH935 unto PharaohH6547, and saidH559 unto him, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680, How longH4970 wilt thou refuseH3985 to humbleH6031 thyself beforeH6440 me? let my peopleH5971 goH7971, that they may serveH5647 me.
For the oppressionH7701 of the poorH6041, for the sighingH603 of the needyH34, now will I ariseH6965, saithH559 the LORDH3068; I will setH7896 him in safetyH3468 from him that puffethH6315 at him. {puffeth…: or, would ensnare him}
Now I knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 is greaterH1419 than all godsH430: for in the thingH1697 wherein they dealt proudlyH2102 he was above them.
For he shall deliverH5337 the needyH34 when he criethH7768; the poorH6041 also, and him that hath no helperH5826.
Cast abroadH6327 the rageH5678 of thy wrathH639: and beholdH7200 every one that is proudH1343, and abaseH8213 him.
LookH7200 on every one that is proudH1343, and bring him lowH3665; and tread downH1915 the wickedH7563 in their place.
I knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 will maintainH6213 the causeH1779 of the afflictedH6041, and the rightH4941 of the poorH34.
Though the LORDH3068 be highH7311, yet hath he respectH7200 unto the lowlyH8217: but the proudH1364 he knowethH3045 afar offH4801.
The SpiritH7307 of the LordH136 GODH3069 is upon me; because the LORDH3068 hath anointedH4886 me to preach good tidingsH1319 unto the meekH6035; he hath sentH7971 me to bind upH2280 the brokenheartedH7665+H3820, to proclaimH7121 libertyH1865 to the captivesH7617, and the opening of the prisonH6495 to them that are boundH631;
To proclaimH7121 the acceptableH7522 yearH8141 of the LORDH3068, and the dayH3117 of vengeanceH5359 of our GodH430; to comfortH5162 all that mournH57;
To appointH7760 unto them that mournH57 in ZionH6726, to giveH5414 unto them beautyH6287 for ashesH665, the oilH8081 of joyH8342 for mourningH60, the garmentH4594 of praiseH8416 for the spiritH7307 of heavinessH3544; that they might be calledH7121 treesH352 of righteousnessH6664, the plantingH4302 of the LORDH3068, that he might be glorifiedH6286.
An highH7312 lookH5869, and a proudH7342 heartH3820, and the plowingH5215 of the wickedH7563, is sinH2403. {An…: Heb. Haughtiness of eyes} {the plowing: or, the light}
In all their afflictionH6869 he was afflictedH6862, and the angelH4397 of his presenceH6440 savedH3467 them: in his loveH160 and in his pityH2551 he redeemedH1350 them; and he bareH5190 them, and carriedH5375 them all the daysH3117 of oldH5769.
The loftyH1365 looksH5869 of manH120 shall be humbledH8213, and the haughtinessH7312 of menH582 shall be bowed downH7817, and the LORDH3068 alone shall be exaltedH7682 in that dayH3117.
BlessedG3107 are the poorG4434 in spiritG4151: forG3754 theirsG846 isG2076 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772.
And the mean manH120 shall be brought downH7817, and the mighty manH376 shall be humbledH8213, and the eyesH5869 of the loftyH1364 shall be humbledH8213:
Whom hast thou reproachedH2778 and blasphemedH1442? and against whom hast thou exaltedH7311 thy voiceH6963, and lifted upH5375 thine eyesH5869 on highH4791? even against the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478.
But I knowH3045 thy abodeH3427, and thy going outH3318, and thy coming inH935, and thy rageH7264 against me. {abode: or, sitting}
Because thy rageH7264 against me, and thy tumultH7600, is come upH5927 into mine earsH241, therefore will I putH7760 my hookH2397 in thy noseH639, and my bridleH4964 in thy lipsH8193, and I will turn thee backH7725 by the wayH1870 by which thou camestH935.
NowH3705 IH576 NebuchadnezzarH5020 praiseH7624 and extolH7313 and honourH1922 the KingH4430 of heavenH8065, allH3606 whose worksH4567 are truthH7187, and his waysH735 judgmentH1780: and those that walkH1981 in prideH1467 he is ableH3202 to abaseH8214.
ButG1161 he givethG1325 moreG3187 graceG5485. WhereforeG1352 he saithG3004, GodG2316 resistethG498 the proudG5244, butG1161 givethG1325 graceG5485 unto the humbleG5011.
Submit yourselvesG5293 thereforeG3767 to GodG2316. ResistG436 the devilG1228, andG2532 he will fleeG5343 fromG575 youG5216.
