1 # And David <01732> spake <01696> (8762) unto the LORD <03068> the words <01697> of this song <07892> in the day <03117> that the LORD <03068> had delivered <05337> (8689) him out of the hand <03709> of all his enemies <0341> (8802), and out of the hand <03709> of Saul <07586>:
2 # And he said <0559> (8799), The LORD <03068> is my rock <05553>, and my fortress <04686>, and my deliverer <06403> (8764);
3 The God <0430> of my rock <06697>; in him will I trust <02620> (8799): he is my shield <04043>, and the horn <07161> of my salvation <03468>, my high tower <04869>, and my refuge <04498>, my saviour <03467> (8688); thou savest <03467> (8686) me from violence <02555>.
4 I will call <07121> (8799) on the LORD <03068>, who is worthy to be praised <01984> (8794): so shall I be saved <03467> (8735) from mine enemies <0341> (8802).
5 When the waves <04867> of death <04194> compassed <0661> (8804) me, the floods <05158> of ungodly men <01100> made me afraid <01204> (8762);
6 The sorrows <02256> of hell <07585> compassed me about <05437> (8804); the snares <04170> of death <04194> prevented <06923> (8765) me;
7 In my distress <06862> I called <07121> (8799) upon the LORD <03068>, and cried <07121> (8799) to my God <0430>: and he did hear <08085> (8799) my voice <06963> out of his temple <01964>, and my cry <07775> did enter into his ears <0241>.
8 Then the earth <0776> shook <01607> (8691) (8675) <01607> (8799) and trembled <07493> (8799); the foundations <04146> of heaven <08064> moved <07264> (8799) and shook <01607> (8691), because he was wroth <02734> (8804).
9 There went up <05927> (8804) a smoke <06227> out of his nostrils <0639>, and fire <0784> out of his mouth <06310> devoured <0398> (8799): coals <01513> were kindled <01197> (8804) by it.
10 He bowed <05186> (8799) the heavens <08064> also, and came down <03381> (8799); and darkness <06205> was under his feet <07272>.
11 And he rode <07392> (8799) upon a cherub <03742>, and did fly <05774> (8799): and he was seen <07200> (8735) upon the wings <03671> of the wind <07307>.
 - WIND OF GOD
12 And he made <07896> (8799) darkness <02822> pavilions <05521> round about <05439> him, dark <02841> waters <04325>, and thick clouds <05645> of the skies <07834>.
 - CLOUD - GLORY
13 Through the brightness <05051> before him were coals <01513> of fire <0784> kindled <01197> (8804).
14 The LORD <03068> thundered <07481> (8686) from heaven <08064>, and the most High <05945> uttered <05414> (8799) his voice <06963>.
15 And he sent out <07971> (8799) arrows <02671>, and scattered <06327> (8686) them; lightning <01300> , and discomfited <02000> (8799) them.
16 And the channels <0650> of the sea <03220> appeared <07200> (8735), the foundations <04146> of the world <08398> were discovered <01540> (8735), at the rebuking <01606> of the LORD <03068>, at the blast <05397> of the breath <07307> of his nostrils <0639>.
17 He sent <07971> (8799) from above <04791>, he took <03947> (8799) me; he drew <04871> (8686) me out of many <07227> waters <04325>;
18 He delivered <05337> (8686) me from my strong <05794> enemy <0341> (8802), and from them that hated <08130> (8802) me: for they were too strong <0553> (8804) for me.
19 They prevented <06923> (8762) me in the day <03117> of my calamity <0343>: but the LORD <03068> was my stay <04937>.
20 He brought me forth <03318> (8686) also into a large place <04800>: he delivered <02502> (8762) me, because he delighted <02654> (8804) in me.
21 The LORD <03068> rewarded <01580> (8799) me according to my righteousness <06666>: according to the cleanness <01252> of my hands <03027> hath he recompensed <07725> (8686) me.
22 For I have kept <08104> (8804) the ways <01870> of the LORD <03068>, and have not wickedly departed <07561> (8804) from my God <0430>.
23 For all his judgments <04941> were before me: and as for his statutes <02708>, I did not depart <05493> (8799) from them.
24 I was also upright <08549> before him, and have kept <08104> (8691) myself from mine iniquity <05771>.
25 Therefore the LORD <03068> hath recompensed <07725> (8686) me according to my righteousness <06666>; according to my cleanness <01252> in his eye sight <05048> <05869>.
26 With the merciful <02623> thou wilt shew thyself merciful <02616> (8691), and with the upright <08549> man <01368> thou wilt shew thyself upright <08552> (8691).
27 With the pure <01305> (8737) thou wilt shew thyself pure <01305> (8691); and with the froward <06141> thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury <06617> (8691).
28 And the afflicted <06041> people <05971> thou wilt save <03467> (8686): but thine eyes <05869> are upon the haughty <07311> (8802), that thou mayest bring them down <08213> (8686).
29 For thou art my lamp <05216>, O LORD <03068>: and the LORD <03068> will lighten <05050> (8686) my darkness <02822>.
30 For by thee I have run <07323> (8799) through a troop <01416>: by my God <0430> have I leaped over <01801> (8762) a wall <07791>.
 - SUPERNATURAL ABILITY
31 As for God <0410>, his way <01870> is perfect <08549>; the word <0565> of the LORD <03068> is tried <06884> (8803): he is a buckler <04043> to all them that trust <02620> (8802) in him.
32 For who is God <0410>, save <01107> the LORD <03068>? and who is a rock <06697>, save <01107> our God <0430>?
33 God <0410> is my strength <04581> and power <02428>: and he maketh <05425> (8686) my way <01870> perfect <08549>.
34 He maketh <07737> <00> my feet <07272> like <07737> (8764) hinds <0355>' feet: and setteth <05975> (8686) me upon my high places <01116>.
35 He teacheth <03925> (8764) my hands <03027> to war <04421>; so that a bow <07198> of steel <05154> is broken <05181> (8765) by mine arms <02220>.
36 Thou hast also given <05414> (8799) me the shield <04043> of thy salvation <03468>: and thy gentleness <06031> (8800) (8676) <06038> hath made me great <07235> (8686).
37 Thou hast enlarged <07337> (8686) my steps <06806> under me; so that my feet <07166> did not slip <04571> (8804).
38 I have pursued <07291> (8799) mine enemies <0341> (8802), and destroyed <08045> (8686) them; and turned not again <07725> (8799) until I had consumed <03615> (8763) them.
39 And I have consumed <03615> (8762) them, and wounded <04272> (8799) them, that they could not arise <06965> (8799): yea, they are fallen <05307> (8799) under my feet <07272>.
40 For thou hast girded <0247> (8762) me with strength <02428> to battle <04421>: them that rose up <06965> (8801) against me hast thou subdued <03766> (8686) under me.
41 Thou hast also given <05414> (8804) me the necks <06203> of mine enemies <0341> (8802), that I might destroy <06789> (8686) them that hate <08130> (8764) me.
42 They looked <08159> (8799), but there was none to save <03467> (8688); even unto the LORD <03068> , but he answered <06030> (8804) them not.
43 Then did I beat <07833> (8799) them as small as the dust <06083> of the earth <0776>, I did stamp <01854> (8686) them as the mire <02916> of the street <02351>, and did spread them abroad <07554> (8799).
44 Thou also hast delivered <06403> (8762) me from the strivings <07379> of my people <05971>, thou hast kept <08104> (8799) me to be head <07218> of the heathen <01471>: a people <05971> which I knew <03045> (8804) not shall serve <05647> (8799) me.
45 Strangers <01121> <05236> shall submit <03584> (8691) themselves unto me: as soon as they hear <08085> (8800) <0241>, they shall be obedient <08085> (8735) unto me.
46 Strangers <01121> <05236> shall fade away <05034> (8799), and they shall be afraid <02296> (8799) out of their close places <04526>.
47 The LORD <03068> liveth <02416>; and blessed <01288> (8803) be my rock <06697>; and exalted <07311> (8799) be the God <0430> of the rock <06697> of my salvation <03468>.
48 It is God <0410> that avengeth <05414> (8802) <05360> me, and that bringeth down <03381> (8688) the people <05971> under me,
49 And that bringeth me forth <03318> (8688) from mine enemies <0341> (8802): thou also hast lifted me up on high <07311> (8787) above them that rose up <06965> (8801) against me: thou hast delivered <05337> (8686) me from the violent <02555> man <0376>.
50 Therefore I will give thanks <03034> (8686) unto thee, O LORD <03068>, among the heathen <01471>, and I will sing praises <02167> (8762) unto thy name <08034>.
51 He is the tower <04024> (8675) <01431> (8688) of salvation <03444> for his king <04428>: and sheweth <06213> (8802) mercy <02617> to his anointed <04899>, unto David <01732>, and to his seed <02233> for <05704> evermore <05769>.
