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.
