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}
My goodnessH2617, and my fortressH4686; my high towerH4869, and my delivererH6403; my shieldH4043, and he in whom I trustH2620; who subduethH7286 my peopleH5971 under me. {My goodness: or, My mercy}
LORDH3068, what is manH120, that thou takest knowledgeH3045 of him! or the sonH1121 of manH582, that thou makest accountH2803 of him!
ManH120 is likeH1819 to vanityH1892: his daysH3117 are as a shadowH6738 that passeth awayH5674.
BowH5186 thy heavensH8064, O LORDH3068, and come downH3381: touchH5060 the mountainsH2022, and they shall smokeH6225.
Cast forthH1299 lightningH1300, and scatterH6327 them: shoot outH7971 thine arrowsH2671, and destroyH2000 them.
SendH7971 thine handH3027 from aboveH4791; ridH6475 me, and deliverH5337 me out of greatH7227 watersH4325, from the handH3027 of strangeH5236 childrenH1121; {hand from: Heb. hands from}
Whose mouthH6310 speakethH1696 vanityH7723, and their right handH3225 is a right handH3225 of falsehoodH8267.
I will singH7891 a newH2319 songH7892 unto thee, O GodH430: upon a psalteryH5035 and an instrument of ten stringsH6218 will I sing praisesH2167 unto thee.
It is he that givethH5414 salvationH8668 unto kingsH4428: who deliverethH6475 DavidH1732 his servantH5650 from the hurtfulH7451 swordH2719. {salvation: or, victory}
RidH6475 me, and deliverH5337 me from the handH3027 of strangeH5236 childrenH1121, whose mouthH6310 speakethH1696 vanityH7723, and their right handH3225 is a right handH3225 of falsehoodH8267:
That our sonsH1121 may be as plantsH5195 grown upH1431 in their youthH5271; that our daughtersH1323 may be as corner stonesH2106, polishedH2404 after the similitudeH8403 of a palaceH1964: {polished: Heb. cut}
That our garnersH4200 may be fullH4392, affordingH6329 all manner of storeH2177+H2177: that our sheepH6629 may bring forth thousandsH503 and ten thousandsH7231 in our streetsH2351: {all…: Heb. from kind to kind}
That our oxenH441 may be strong to labourH5445; that there be no breaking inH6556, nor going outH3318; that there be no complainingH6682 in our streetsH7339. {strong…: Heb. able to bear burdens, or, loaden with flesh}
HappyH835 is that peopleH5971, that is in such a caseH3602: yea, happyH835 is that peopleH5971, whose GodH430 is the LORDH3068.

He lookethH5027 on the earthH776, and it tremblethH7460: he touchethH5060 the hillsH2022, and they smokeH6225.
OhH3863 that thou wouldest rendH7167 the heavensH8064, that thou wouldest come downH3381, that the mountainsH2022 might flow downH2151 at thy presenceH6440,
And mountH2022 SinaiH5514 was altogether on a smokeH6225, becauseH6440+H834 the LORDH3068 descendedH3381 upon it in fireH784: and the smokeH6227 thereof ascendedH5927 as the smokeH6227 of a furnaceH3536, and the whole mountH2022 quakedH2729 greatlyH3966.
As when the meltingH2003 fireH784 burnethH6919, the fireH784 causeth the watersH4325 to boilH1158, to make thy nameH8034 knownH3045 to thine adversariesH6862, that the nationsH1471 may trembleH7264 at thy presenceH6440! {the melting…: Heb. the fire of meltings}
The LORDH3068 is slowH750 to angerH639, and greatH1419 in powerH3581, and will not at allH5352 acquitH5352 the wicked: the LORDH3068 hath his wayH1870 in the whirlwindH5492 and in the stormH8183, and the cloudsH6051 are the dustH80 of his feetH7272.
He rebukethH1605 the seaH3220, and maketh it dryH2717, and drieth upH3001 all the riversH5104: BashanH1316 languishethH535, and CarmelH3760, and the flowerH6525 of LebanonH3844 languishethH535.
The mountainsH2022 quakeH7493 at him, and the hillsH1389 meltH4127, and the earthH776 is burnedH5375 at his presenceH6440, yea, the worldH8398, and all that dwellH3427 therein.
Who can standH5975 beforeH6440 his indignationH2195? and who can abideH6965 in the fiercenessH2740 of his angerH639? his furyH2534 is poured outH5413 like fireH784, and the rocksH6697 are thrown downH5422 by him. {abide: Heb. stand up}

And his brightnessH5051 was as the lightH216; he had hornsH7161 coming out of his handH3027: and there was the hidingH2253 of his powerH5797. {horns…: or, bright beams out of his side}
BeforeH6440 him wentH3212 the pestilenceH1698, and burning coalsH7565 went forthH3318 at his feetH7272. {coals: or, diseases}
He stoodH5975, and measuredH4128 the earthH776: he beheldH7200, and drove asunderH5425 the nationsH1471; and the everlastingH5703 mountainsH2042 were scatteredH6327, the perpetualH5769 hillsH1389 did bowH7817: his waysH1979 are everlastingH5769.
