RejoiceH7442 in the LORDH3068, O ye righteousH6662: for praiseH8416 is comelyH5000 for the uprightH3477.
PraiseH3034 the LORDH3068 with harpH3658: singH2167 unto him with the psalteryH5035 and an instrument of ten stringsH6218.
SingH7891 unto him a newH2319 songH7892; playH5059 skilfullyH3190 with a loud noiseH8643.
For the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 is rightH3477; and all his worksH4639 are done in truthH530.
He lovethH157 righteousnessH6666 and judgmentH4941: the earthH776 is fullH4390 of the goodnessH2617 of the LORDH3068. {goodness: or, mercy}
By the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 were the heavensH8064 madeH6213; and all the hostH6635 of them by the breathH7307 of his mouthH6310.
He gatherethH3664 the watersH4325 of the seaH3220 together as an heapH5067: he layeth upH5414 the depthH8415 in storehousesH214.
Let all the earthH776 fearH3372 the LORDH3068: let all the inhabitantsH3427 of the worldH8398 stand in aweH1481 of him.
For he spakeH559, and it was done; he commandedH6680, and it stood fastH5975.
The LORDH3068 bringethH6331 the counselH6098 of the heathenH1471 to noughtH6331: he makethH5106 the devicesH4284 of the peopleH5971 of none effectH5106. {bringeth: Heb. maketh frustrate}
The counselH6098 of the LORDH3068 standethH5975 for everH5769, the thoughtsH4284 of his heartH3820 to allH1755 generationsH1755. {to all…: Heb. to generation and generation}
BlessedH835 is the nationH1471 whose GodH430 is the LORDH3068; and the peopleH5971 whom he hath chosenH977 for his own inheritanceH5159.
The LORDH3068 lookethH5027 from heavenH8064; he beholdethH7200 all the sonsH1121 of menH120.
From the placeH4349 of his habitationH3427 he lookethH7688 upon all the inhabitantsH3427 of the earthH776.
He fashionethH3335 their heartsH3820 alikeH3162; he considerethH995 all their worksH4639.
There is no kingH4428 savedH3467 by the multitudeH7230 of an hostH2428: a mighty manH1368 is not deliveredH5337 by muchH7230 strengthH3581.
An horseH5483 is a vain thingH8267 for safetyH8668: neither shall he deliverH4422 any by his greatH7230 strengthH2428.
Behold, the eyeH5869 of the LORDH3068 is upon them that fearH3373 him, upon them that hopeH3176 in his mercyH2617;
To deliverH5337 their soulH5315 from deathH4194, and to keep them aliveH2421 in famineH7458.
Our soulH5315 waitethH2442 for the LORDH3068: he is our helpH5828 and our shieldH4043.
For our heartH3820 shall rejoiceH8055 in him, because we have trustedH982 in his holyH6944 nameH8034.
Let thy mercyH2617, O LORDH3068, be upon us, according as we hopeH3176 in thee.
Querverweise zu Psalm 33,16 Ps 33,16
For they gotH3423 not the landH776 in possessionH3423 by their own swordH2719, neither did their own armH2220 saveH3467 them: but thy right handH3225, and thine armH2220, and the lightH216 of thy countenanceH6440, because thou hadst a favourH7521 unto them.
Now therefore giveH5414 me this mountainH2022, whereof the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 in that dayH3117; for thou heardestH8085 in that dayH3117 how the AnakimsH6062 were there, and that the citiesH5892 were greatH1419 and fencedH1219: if so beH194 the LORDH3068 will be withH854 me, then I shall be able to drive them outH3423, as the LORDH3068 saidH1696.
And there went outH3318 a championH376+H1143 out of the campH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430, namedH8034 GoliathH1555, of GathH1661, whose heightH1363 was sixH8337 cubitsH520 and a spanH2239.
But thou hast savedH3467 us from our enemiesH6862, and hast put them to shameH954 that hatedH8130 us.
Then saidH559 DavidH1732 to the PhilistineH6430, Thou comestH935 to me with a swordH2719, and with a spearH2595, and with a shieldH3591: but I comeH935 to thee in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of the armiesH4634 of IsraelH3478, whom thou hast defiedH2778.
This dayH3117 will the LORDH3068 deliverH5462 thee into mine handH3027; and I will smiteH5221 thee, and takeH5493 thine headH7218 from thee; and I will giveH5414 the carcasesH6297 of the hostH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430 this dayH3117 unto the fowlsH5775 of the airH8064, and to the wild beastsH2416 of the earthH776; that all the earthH776 may knowH3045 that there isH3426 a GodH430 in IsraelH3478. {deliver…: Heb. shut thee up}
And all this assemblyH6951 shall knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 savethH3467 not with swordH2719 and spearH2595: for the battleH4421 is the LORD'SH3068, and he will giveH5414 you into our handsH3027.
And it came to pass, when the PhilistineH6430 aroseH6965, and cameH3212 and drew nighH7126 to meetH7125 DavidH1732, that DavidH1732 hastedH4116, and ranH7323 toward the armyH4634 to meetH7125 the PhilistineH6430.
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.
And I, behold, I will hardenH2388 the heartsH3820 of the EgyptiansH4714, and they shall followH935 themH310: and I will get me honourH3513 upon PharaohH6547, and upon all his hostH2428, upon his chariotsH7393, and upon his horsemenH6571.
And IshbibenobH3430, which was of the sonsH3211 of the giantH7497, the weightH4948 of whose spearH7013 weighed threeH7969 hundredH3967 shekels of brassH5178 in weightH4948, he being girdedH2296 with a newH2319 sword, thoughtH559 to have slainH5221 DavidH1732. {the giant: or, Rapha} {spear: Heb. the staff, or, the head}
But AbishaiH52 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870 succouredH5826 him, and smoteH5221 the PhilistineH6430, and killedH4191 him. Then the menH582 of DavidH1732 swareH7650 unto him, sayingH559, Thou shalt goH3318 no more out with us to battleH4421, that thou quenchH3518 not the lightH5216 of IsraelH3478. {light: Heb. candle, or, lamp}
And it came to pass after thisH310, that there was again a battleH4421 with the PhilistinesH6430 at GobH1359: then SibbechaiH5444 the HushathiteH2843 slewH5221 SaphH5593, which was of the sonsH3211 of the giantH7497. {the giant: or, Rapha} {Saph: or, Sippai}
And there was again a battleH4421 in GobH1359 with the PhilistinesH6430, where ElhananH445 the sonH1121 of JaareoregimH3296, a BethlehemiteH1022, slewH5221 the brother of GoliathH1555 the GittiteH1663, the staffH6086 of whose spearH2595 was like a weaver'sH707 beamH4500. {Jaareoregim: or, Jair}
And there was yet a battleH4421 in GathH1661, where was a manH376 of great statureH4067+H4055, that had on every handH3027 sixH8337 fingersH676, and on every footH7272 sixH8337 toesH676, fourH702 and twentyH6242 in numberH4557; and he also was bornH3205 to the giantH7497. {the giant: or, Rapha}
And when he defiedH2778 IsraelH3478, JonathanH3083 the sonH1121 of ShimeaH8092 the brotherH251 of DavidH1732 slewH5221 him. {defied: or, reproached}
These fourH702 were bornH3205 to the giantH7497 in GathH1661, and fellH5307 by the handH3027 of DavidH1732, and by the handH3027 of his servantsH5650.
And the EgyptiansH4714 shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, when I have gotten me honourH3513 upon PharaohH6547, upon his chariotsH7393, and upon his horsemenH6571.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Let not the wiseH2450 man gloryH1984 in his wisdomH2451, neither let the mightyH1368 man gloryH1984 in his mightH1369, let not the richH6223 man gloryH1984 in his richesH6239:
And the watersH4325 returnedH7725, and coveredH3680 the chariotsH7393, and the horsemenH6571, and all the hostH2428 of PharaohH6547 that cameH935 into the seaH3220 afterH310 them; there remainedH7604 not so much asH5704 oneH259 of them.
And they went outH3318, they and all their hostsH4264 with them, muchH7227 peopleH5971, even as the sandH2344 that is upon the seaH3220 shoreH8193 in multitudeH7230, with horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393 veryH3966 manyH7227.
And when all these kingsH4428 were met togetherH3259, they cameH935 and pitchedH2583 togetherH3162 at the watersH4325 of MeromH4792, to fightH3898 against IsraelH3478. {met…: Heb. assembled by appointment}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, Be not afraidH3372 becauseH6440 of them: for to morrowH4279 about this timeH6256 will I deliver them upH5414 all slainH2491 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478: thou shalt houghH6131 their horsesH5483, and burnH8313 their chariotsH4818 with fireH784.
So JoshuaH3091 cameH935, and all the peopleH5971 of warH4421 with him, against them by the watersH4325 of MeromH4792 suddenlyH6597; and they fell uponH5307 them.
And the LORDH3068 deliveredH5414 them into the handH3027 of IsraelH3478, who smoteH5221 them, and chasedH7291 them unto greatH7227 ZidonH6721, and unto MisrephothmaimH4956, and unto the valleyH1237 of MizpehH4708 eastwardH4217; and they smoteH5221 them, until they leftH7604 them none remainingH8300. {great Zidon: or, Zidonrabbah} {Misrephothmaim: or, Salt pits: Heb. Burnings of waters}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto GideonH1439, The peopleH5971 that are with thee are too manyH7227 for me to giveH5414 the MidianitesH4080 into their handsH3027, lest IsraelH3478 vauntH6286 themselves against me, sayingH559, Mine own handH3027 hath savedH3467 me.
And the MidianitesH4080 and the AmalekitesH6002 and all the childrenH1121 of the eastH6924 layH5307 along in the valleyH6010 like grasshoppersH697 for multitudeH7230; and their camelsH1581 were without numberH4557, as the sandH2344 by the seaH3220 sideH8193 for multitudeH7230.
And when GideonH1439 was comeH935, behold, there was a manH376 that toldH5608 a dreamH2472 unto his fellowH7453, and saidH559, Behold, I dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472, and, lo, a cakeH6742+H6742 of barleyH8184 breadH3899 tumbledH2015 into the hostH4264 of MidianH4080, and cameH935 unto a tentH168, and smoteH5221 it that it fellH5307, and overturnedH2015+H4605 it, that the tentH168 lay alongH5307.
And his fellowH7453 answeredH6030 and saidH559, This is nothing else save the swordH2719 of GideonH1439 the sonH1121 of JoashH3101, a manH376 of IsraelH3478: for into his handH3027 hath GodH430 deliveredH5414 MidianH4080, and all the hostH4264.
And it was so, when GideonH1439 heardH8085 the tellingH4557 of the dreamH2472, and the interpretationH7667 thereof, that he worshippedH7812, and returnedH7725 into the hostH4264 of IsraelH3478, and saidH559, AriseH6965; for the LORDH3068 hath deliveredH5414 into your handH3027 the hostH4264 of MidianH4080. {interpretation: Heb. breaking}
And he dividedH2673 the threeH7969 hundredH3967 menH376 into threeH7969 companiesH7218, and he putH5414 a trumpetH7782 in every man's handH3027, with emptyH7386 pitchersH3537, and lampsH3940 withinH8432 the pitchersH3537. {a trumpet…: Heb. trumpets in the hand of all of them} {lamps: or, firebrands, or, torches}
And he saidH559 unto them, LookH7200 on me, and doH6213 likewise: and, behold, when I comeH935 to the outsideH7097 of the campH4264, it shall be that, as I doH6213, so shall ye doH6213.
When I blowH8628 with a trumpetH7782, I and all that are with me, then blowH8628 ye the trumpetsH7782 also on every sideH5439 of all the campH4264, and sayH559, The sword of the LORDH3068, and of GideonH1439.
So GideonH1439, and the hundredH3967 menH376 that were with him, cameH935 unto the outsideH7097 of the campH4264 in the beginningH7218 of the middleH8484 watchH821; and they had butH389 newlyH6965 setH6965 the watchH8104: and they blewH8628 the trumpetsH7782, and brakeH5310 the pitchersH3537 that were in their handsH3027.
And the threeH7969 companiesH7218 blewH8628 the trumpetsH7782, and brakeH7665 the pitchersH3537, and heldH2388 the lampsH3940 in their leftH8040 handsH3027, and the trumpetsH7782 in their rightH3225 handsH3027 to blowH8628 withal: and they criedH7121, The swordH2719 of the LORDH3068, and of GideonH1439.
And they stoodH5975 every manH376 in his place round aboutH5439 the campH4264: and all the hostH4264 ranH7323, and criedH7321, and fledH5127+H5127.
And the threeH7969 hundredH3967 blewH8628 the trumpetsH7782, and the LORDH3068 setH7760 every man'sH376 swordH2719 against his fellowH7453, even throughout all the hostH4264: and the hostH4264 fledH5127 to BethshittahH1029 in ZererathH6888, and to the borderH8193 of AbelmeholahH65, unto TabbathH2888. {in: or, toward} {border: Heb. lip}
And the menH376 of IsraelH3478 gathered themselves togetherH6817 out of NaphtaliH5321, and out of AsherH836, and out of all ManassehH4519, and pursuedH7291 afterH310 the MidianitesH4080.
And GideonH1439 sentH7971 messengersH4397 throughout all mountH2022 EphraimH669, sayingH559, Come downH3381 againstH7125 the MidianitesH4080, and takeH3920 before them the watersH4325 unto BethbarahH1012 and JordanH3383. Then all the menH376 of EphraimH669 gathered themselves togetherH6817, and tookH3920 the watersH4325 unto BethbarahH1012 and JordanH3383.
And they tookH3920 twoH8147 princesH8269 of the MidianitesH4080, OrebH6159 and ZeebH2062; and they slewH2026 OrebH6159 upon the rockH6697 OrebH6159, and ZeebH2062 they slewH2026 at the winepressH3342 of ZeebH2062, and pursuedH7291 MidianH4080, and broughtH935 the headsH7218 of OrebH6159 and ZeebH2062 to GideonH1439 on the other sideH5676 JordanH3383.
Then saidH559 JonathanH3083, Behold, we will pass overH5674 unto these menH582, and we will discoverH1540 ourselves unto them.
If they sayH559 thus unto us, TarryH1826 until we comeH5060 to you; then we will stand stillH5975 in our place, and will not go upH5927 unto them. {Tarry: Heb. Be still}
But if they sayH559 thus, Come upH5927 unto us; then we will go upH5927: for the LORDH3068 hath deliveredH5414 them into our handH3027: and this shall be a signH226 unto us.
And bothH8147 of them discoveredH1540 themselves unto the garrisonH4673 of the PhilistinesH6430: and the PhilistinesH6430 saidH559, Behold, the HebrewsH5680 come forthH3318 out of the holesH2356 where they had hidH2244 themselves.
And the menH582 of the garrisonH4675 answeredH6030 JonathanH3129 and his armourbearerH5375+H3627, and saidH559, Come upH5927 to us, and we will shewH3045 you a thingH1697. And JonathanH3129 saidH559 unto his armourbearerH5375+H3627, Come upH5927 afterH310 me: for the LORDH3068 hath deliveredH5414 them into the handH3027 of IsraelH3478.
And JonathanH3129 climbed upH5927 upon his handsH3027 and upon his feetH7272, and his armourbearerH5375+H3627 afterH310 him: and they fellH5307 beforeH6440 JonathanH3129; and his armourbearerH5375+H3627 slewH4191 afterH310 him.
And that firstH7223 slaughterH4347, which JonathanH3129 and his armourbearerH5375+H3627 madeH5221, was about twentyH6242 menH376, within as it were an halfH2677 acreH4618 of landH7704, which a yokeH6776 of oxen might plow. {an…: or, half a furrow of an acre of land}
And there was tremblingH2731 in the hostH4264, in the fieldH7704, and among all the peopleH5971: the garrisonH4673, and the spoilersH7843, they also trembledH2729, and the earthH776 quakedH7264: so it was a very greatH430 tremblingH2731. {a very…: Heb. a trembling of God}
And the watchmenH6822 of SaulH7586 in GibeahH1390 of BenjaminH1144 lookedH7200; and, behold, the multitudeH1995 melted awayH4127, and they wentH3212 on beating downH1986 one another.
And BenhadadH1130 sentH7971 unto him, and saidH559, The godsH430 do soH6213 unto me, and more alsoH3254, if the dustH6083 of SamariaH8111 shall sufficeH5606 for handfulsH8168 for all the peopleH5971 that followH7272 me. {follow…: Heb. are at my feet}
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 were numberedH6485, and were all presentH3557, and wentH3212 againstH7125 them: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 pitchedH2583 before them like twoH8147 little flocksH2835 of kidsH5795; but the SyriansH758 filledH4390 the countryH776. {were all…: or, were nourished}
And there cameH5066 a manH376 of GodH430, and spakeH559 unto the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, and saidH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Because the SyriansH758 have saidH559, The LORDH3068 is GodH430 of the hillsH2022, but he is not GodH430 of the valleysH6010, therefore will I deliverH5414 all this greatH1419 multitudeH1995 into thine handH3027, and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
And they pitchedH2583 oneH428 over againstH5227 the otherH428 sevenH7651 daysH3117. And so it was, that in the seventhH7637 dayH3117 the battleH4421 was joinedH7126: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 slewH5221 of the SyriansH758 an hundredH3967 thousandH505 footmenH7273 in oneH259 dayH3117.
And there came outH3318 against them ZerahH2226 the EthiopianH3569 with an hostH2428 of a thousandH505 thousandH505, and threeH7969 hundredH3967 chariotsH4818; and cameH935 unto MareshahH4762.
Then AsaH609 went outH3318 againstH6440 him, and they set the battleH4421 in arrayH6186 in the valleyH1516 of ZephathahH6859 at MareshahH4762.
And AsaH609 criedH7121 unto the LORDH3068 his GodH430, and saidH559, LORDH3068, it is nothing with thee to helpH5826, whetherH996 with manyH7227, or with them that have no powerH3581: helpH5826 us, O LORDH3068 our GodH430; for we restH8172 on thee, and in thy nameH8034 we goH935 against this multitudeH1995. O LORDH3068, thou art our GodH430; let not manH582 prevailH6113 against thee. {man: or, mortal man}
So the LORDH3068 smoteH5062 the EthiopiansH3569 beforeH6440 AsaH609, and beforeH6440 JudahH3063; and the EthiopiansH3569 fledH5127.
And AsaH609 and the peopleH5971 that were with him pursuedH7291 them unto GerarH1642: and the EthiopiansH3569 were overthrownH5307, that they could not recoverH4241 themselves; for they were destroyedH7665 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and beforeH6440 his hostH4264; and they carried awayH5375 veryH3966 muchH7235 spoilH7998. {destroyed: Heb. broken}
O our GodH430, wilt thou not judgeH8199 them? for we have no mightH3581 againstH6440 this greatH7227 companyH1995 that comethH935 against us; neither knowH3045 weH587 what to doH6213: but our eyesH5869 are upon thee.
For the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 and MoabH4124 stood upH5975 against the inhabitantsH3427 of mountH2022 SeirH8165, utterly to slayH2763 and destroyH8045 them: and when they had made an endH3615 of the inhabitantsH3427 of SeirH8165, every oneH376 helpedH5826 to destroyH4889 anotherH7453. {to destroy: Heb. for the destruction}
With him is an armH2220 of fleshH1320; but with us is the LORDH3068 our GodH430 to helpH5826 us, and to fightH3898 our battlesH4421. And the peopleH5971 restedH5564 themselves upon the wordsH1697 of HezekiahH3169 kingH4428 of JudahH3063. {rested…: Heb. leaned}
AfterH310 this did SennacheribH5576 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 sendH7971 his servantsH5650 to JerusalemH3389, (but he himself laid siege against LachishH3923, and all his powerH4475 with him,) unto HezekiahH3169 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and unto all JudahH3063 that were at JerusalemH3389, sayingH559, {power: Heb. dominion}
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 an angelH4397, which cut offH3582 all the mighty menH1368 of valourH2428, and the leadersH5057 and captainsH8269 in the campH4264 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804. So he returnedH7725 with shameH1322 of faceH6440 to his own landH776. And when he was comeH935 into the houseH1004 of his godH430, they that came forthH3329 of his own bowelsH4578 slewH5307 him there with the swordH2719. {slew…: Heb. made him fall}
