| [1]A Psalm of David. Blessed be 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 my Rock, who traineth my hands for war, and my fingers for battle; |
[1]Blessed be the LORD my strength which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight: |
| [2]My lovingkindness, and my fortress, my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and He in whom I take refuge; who subdueth my people under me. |
[2]My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me. |
| [3]𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, what is man, that Thou takest knowledge of him? or the son of man, that Thou makest account of him? |
[3]LORD, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account of him! |
| [4]Man is like unto a breath; his days are as a shadow that passeth away. |
[4]Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away. |
| [5]O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, bow Thy heavens, and come down; touch the mountains, that they may smoke. |
[5]Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke. |
| [6]Cast forth lightning, and scatter them; send out Thine arrows, and discomfit them. |
[6]Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and destroy them. |
| [7]Stretch forth Thy hands from on high; rescue me, and deliver me out of many waters, out of the hand of strangers; |
[7]Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children; |
| [8]Whose mouth speaketh falsehood, and their right hand is a right hand of lying. |
[8]Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood. |
| [9]O God, I will sing a new song unto Thee, upon a psaltery of ten strings will I sing praises unto Thee; |
[9]I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee. |
| [10]Who givest salvation unto kings, who rescuest David Thy servant from the hurtful sword. |
[10]It is he that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword. |
| [11]Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hand of strangers, whose mouth speaketh falsehood, and their right hand is a right hand of lying. |
[11]Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood: |
| [12]We whose sons are as plants grown up in their youth; whose daughters are as corner-pillars carved after the fashion of a palace; |
[12]That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace: |
| [13]Whose garners are full, affording all manner of store; whose sheep increase by thousands and ten thousands in our fields; |
[13]That our garners may be full, affording all manner of store: that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets: |
| [14]Whose oxen are well laden; with no breach, and no going forth, and no outcry in our broad places; |
[14]That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets. |
| [15]Happy is the people that is in such a case. Yea, happy is the people whose God is 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇. |
[15]Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD. |
