To the chief MusicianH5329, A Psalm of DavidH1732, the servantH5650 of the LORDH3068, who spakeH1696 unto the LORDH3068 the wordsH1697 of this songH7892 in the dayH3117 that the LORDH3068 deliveredH5337 him from the handH3709 of all his enemiesH341, and from the handH3027 of SaulH7586: And he saidH559, I will loveH7355 thee, O LORDH3068, my strengthH2391.
The LORDH3068 is my rockH5553, and my fortressH4686, and my delivererH6403; my GodH410, my strengthH6697, in whom I will trustH2620; my bucklerH4043, and the hornH7161 of my salvationH3468, and my high towerH4869. {my strength: Heb. my rock}
I will callH7121 upon the LORDH3068, who is worthy to be praisedH1984: so shall I be savedH3467 from mine enemiesH341.
The sorrowsH2256 of deathH4194 compassedH661 me, and the floodsH5158 of ungodly menH1100 made me afraidH1204. {ungodly men: 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 criedH7768 unto my GodH430: he heardH8085 my voiceH6963 out of his templeH1964, and my cryH7775 cameH935 beforeH6440 him, even into his earsH241.
Then the earthH776 shookH1607 and trembledH7493; the foundationsH4146 also of the hillsH2022 movedH7264 and were shakenH1607, 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 his, etc}
He bowedH5186 the heavensH8064 also, and came downH3381: and darknessH6205 was under his feetH7272.
And he rodeH7392 upon a cherubH3742, and did flyH5774: yea, he did flyH1675 upon the wingsH3671 of the windH7307.
He madeH7896 darknessH2822 his secret placeH5643; his pavilionH5521 round aboutH5439 him were darkH2824 watersH4325 and thick cloudsH5645 of the skiesH7834.
At the brightnessH5051 that was before him his thick cloudsH5645 passedH5674, hailH1259 stones and coalsH1513 of fireH784.
The LORDH3068 also thunderedH7481 in the heavensH8064, and the HighestH5945 gaveH5414 his voiceH6963; hailH1259 stones and coalsH1513 of fireH784.
Yea, he sent outH7971 his arrowsH2671, and scatteredH6327 them; and he shot outH7232 lightningsH1300, and discomfitedH2000 them.
Then the channelsH650 of watersH4325 were seenH7200, and the foundationsH4146 of the worldH8398 were discoveredH1540 at thy rebukeH1606, O LORDH3068, at the blastH5397 of the breathH7307 of thy 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 which 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 righteousnessH6664; 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 I did not put awayH5493 his statutesH2708 from me.
I was also uprightH8549 before him, and I keptH8104 myself from mine iniquityH5771. {before: Heb. with}
Therefore hath the LORDH3068 recompensedH7725 me according to my righteousnessH6664, according to the cleannessH1252 of my handsH3027 in his eyesightH5869. {in…: Heb. before his eyes}
With the mercifulH2623 thou wilt shew thyself mercifulH2616; with an uprightH8549 manH1399 thou wilt shew thyself uprightH8552;
With the pureH1305 thou wilt shew thyself pureH1305; and with the frowardH6141 thou wilt shew thyself frowardH6617. {shew thyself froward: or, wrestle}
For thou wilt saveH3467 the afflictedH6041 peopleH5971; but wilt bring downH8213 highH7311 looksH5869.
For thou wilt lightH215 my candleH5216: the LORDH3068 my GodH430 will enlightenH5050 my darknessH2822. {candle: or, lamp}
For by thee I have run throughH7323 a troopH1416; and 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 those that trustH2620 in him. {tried: or, refined}
For who is GodH433 saveH1107 the LORDH3068? or who is a rockH6697 saveH2108 our GodH430?
It is GodH410 that girdethH247 me with strengthH2428, and makethH5414 my wayH1870 perfectH8549.
He makethH7737 my feetH7272 like hinds'H355 feet, and settethH5975 me upon my high placesH1116.
He teachethH3925 my handsH3027 to warH4421, so that a bowH7198 of steelH5154 is brokenH5181 by mine armsH2220.
Thou hast also givenH5414 me the shieldH4043 of thy salvationH3468: and thy right handH3225 hath holden me upH5582, and thy gentlenessH6037 hath made me greatH7235. {thy gentleness…: or, with thy meekness thou hast multiplied me}
Thou hast enlargedH7337 my stepsH6806 under me, that my feetH7166 did not slipH4571. {my feet: Heb. mine ankles}
I have pursuedH7291 mine enemiesH341, and overtakenH5381 them: neither did I turn againH7725 till they were consumedH3615.
I have woundedH4272 them that they were not ableH3201 to riseH6965: they are fallenH5307 under my feetH7272.
For thou hast girdedH247 me with strengthH2428 unto the battleH4421: thou hast subduedH3766 under me those that rose upH6965 against 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 criedH7768, but there was none to saveH3467 them: even unto the LORDH3068, but he answeredH6030 them not.
Then did I beatH7833 them small as the dustH6083 beforeH6440 the windH7307: I did cast them outH7324 as the dirtH2916 in the streetsH2351.
Thou hast deliveredH6403 me from the strivingsH7379 of the peopleH5971; and thou hast madeH7760 me the headH7218 of the heathenH1471: a peopleH5971 whom I have not knownH3045 shall serveH5647 me.
As soon as they hearH8088+H241 of me, they shall obeyH8085 me: the strangersH1121+H5236 shall submitH3584 themselves unto me. {As soon…: Heb. At the hearing of the ear} {submit…: or, yield feigned obedience} {strangers: Heb. sons of the stranger}
The strangersH1121+H5236 shall fade awayH5034, and be afraidH2727 out of their close placesH4526. {strangers: Heb. sons of the stranger}
The LORDH3068 livethH2416; and blessedH1288 be my rockH6697; and let the GodH430 of my salvationH3468 be exaltedH7311.
It is GodH410 that avengethH5414+H5360 me, and subduethH1696 the peopleH5971 under me. {avengeth: Heb. giveth avengements for} {subdueth: or, destroyeth}
He deliverethH6403 me from mine enemiesH341: yea, thou liftest me upH7311 above those that rise upH6965 against me: thou hast deliveredH5337 me from the violentH2555 manH376. {violent…: Heb. man of violence}
Therefore will I give thanksH3034 unto thee, O LORDH3068, among the heathenH1471, and sing praisesH2167 unto thy nameH8034. {give…: or, confess}
GreatH1431 deliveranceH3444 giveth he to his kingH4428; and shewethH6213 mercyH2617 to his anointedH4899, to DavidH1732, and to his seedH2233 forH5704 evermoreH5769.

A Psalm of DavidH1732. BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 my strengthH6697, which teachethH3925 my handsH3027 to warH7128, and my fingersH676 to fightH4421: {strength: Heb. rock} {to war…: Heb. to the war, etc}
AndG2532 he saidG2046 unto meG3427, MyG3450 graceG5485 is sufficientG714 for theeG4671: forG1063 myG3450 strengthG1411 is made perfectG5048 inG1722 weaknessG769.

It is he that givethH5414 salvationH8668 unto kingsH4428: who deliverethH6475 DavidH1732 his servantH5650 from the hurtfulH7451 swordH2719. {salvation: or, victory}
ThereforeG1352 I take pleasureG2106 inG1722 infirmitiesG769, inG1722 reproachesG5196, inG1722 necessitiesG318, inG1722 persecutionsG1375, inG1722 distressesG4730 forG5228 Christ'sG5547 sakeG5228: forG1063 whenG3752 I am weakG770, thenG5119 amG1510 I strongG1415.
And DavidH1732 putH7971 his handH3027 in his bagH3627, and tookH3947 thence a stoneH68, and slangH7049 it, and smoteH5221 the PhilistineH6430 in his foreheadH4696, that the stoneH68 sunkH2883 into his foreheadH4696; and he fellH5307 upon his faceH6440 to the earthH776.
Therefore DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Shall I goH3212 and smiteH5221 these PhilistinesH6430? And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, GoH3212, and smiteH5221 the PhilistinesH6430, and saveH3467 KeilahH7084.
And DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 at the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Shall I pursueH7291 afterH310 this troopH1416? shall I overtakeH5381 them? And he answeredH559 him, PursueH7291: for thou shalt surelyH5381 overtakeH5381 them, and without failH5337 recoverH5337 all.
And DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Shall I go upH5927 to the PhilistinesH6430? wilt thou deliverH5414 them into mine handH3027? And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, Go upH5927: for I will doubtlessH5414 deliverH5414 the PhilistinesH6430 into thine handH3027.
And DavidH1732 cameH935 to BaalperazimH1188, and DavidH1732 smoteH5221 them there, and saidH559, The LORDH3068 hath broken forthH6555 upon mine enemiesH341 beforeH6440 me, as the breachH6556 of watersH4325. Therefore he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 BaalperazimH1188. {Baalperazim: that is, the plain of breaches}
And DavidH1732 did soH6213, as the LORDH3068 had commandedH6680 him; and smoteH5221 the PhilistinesH6430 from GebaH1387 until thou comeH935 to GazerH1507.
