Psalms 144:1-7

1 <<By David.>> Blessed be Yahweh, my rock, Who teaches my hands to war, And my fingers to battle:

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

2 My lovingkindness, my fortress, My high tower, my deliverer, My shield, and he in whom I take refuge; Who subdues 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 Yahweh, what is man, that you care for him? Or the son of man, that you think of him?

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

4 Man is like a breath. His days are like a shadow that passes away.

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

5 Part your heavens, Yahweh, and come down. Touch the mountains, and they will smoke.

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

6 Throw out lightning, and scatter them. Send out your arrows, and rout them.

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

7 Stretch out your hand from above, Rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, Out of the hands of foreigners;

7 Reach down your hand from on high; deliver me and rescue me from the mighty waters, from the hands of foreigners
