Psalms 144:1-6

1 Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:

1 Praise be to the LORD my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle.

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.

2 He is my loving God and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield, in whom I take refuge, who subdues peoples under me.

3 LORD, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account of him!

3 LORD, what are human beings that you care for them, mere mortals that you think of them?

4 Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.

4 They are like a breath; their days are like a fleeting shadow.

5 Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.

5 Part your heavens, LORD, and come down; touch the mountains, so that they smoke.

6 Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and destroy them.

6 Send forth lightning and scatter the enemy; shoot your arrows and rout them.
