Psalms 144:1-7

1 By David: Blessed be ADONAI, my rock, who trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.

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

2 He shows me grace; and he is my fortress, my stronghold, in whom I find shelter, my shield, 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 ADONAI, what are mere mortals, that you notice them at all; humans, that you think about them?

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

4 Man is like a puff of wind, his days like a fleeting shadow.

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

5 ADONAI, lower the heavens, and come down; touch the mountains, make them pour out smoke.

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

6 Shoot 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 Reach out your hands from on high; rescue me; save me out of deep water, out of the power of strangers,

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