Of David."

1 Praise be to the LORD my Rock,¹ who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle. 2 He is my loving God and my fortress,² my stronghold³ and my deliverer, my shield,⁴ in whom I take refuge, who subdues peoples^a⁵ under me. 3 LORD, what are human beings⁶ that you care for them, mere mortals that you think of them? 4 They are like a breath;⁷ their days are like a fleeting shadow.⁸ 5 Part your heavens,⁹ LORD, and come down;¹⁰ touch the mountains, so that they smoke.¹¹ 6 Send forth lightning¹² and scatter¹³ the enemy; shoot your arrows¹⁴ and rout them.
