2 Samuel 22

Hebrew Names Version HNV

1 David spoke to the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Sha'ul:

2 and he said, The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer, even mine;

3 God, my rock, in him will I take refuge; My shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge; My savior, you save me from violence.

4 I will call on the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: So shall I be saved from my enemies.

5 For the waves of death compassed me; The floods of ungodliness made me afraid:

6 The cords of She'ol were round about me; The snares of death came on me.

7 In my distress I called on the LORD; Yes, I called to my God: He heard my voice out of his temple, My cry [came] into his ears.

8 Then the eretz shook and trembled, The foundations of heaven quaked Were shaken, because he was angry.

9 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, Fire out of his mouth devoured: Coals were kindled by it.

10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; Thick darkness was under his feet.

11 He rode on a Keruv, and did fly; Yes, he was seen on the wings of the wind.

12 He made darkness pavilions round about him, Gathering of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

13 At the brightness before him Coals of fire were kindled.

14 The LORD thundered from heaven, The Elyon uttered his voice.

15 He sent out arrows, and scattered them; Lightning, and confused them.

16 Then the channels of the sea appeared, The foundations of the world were laid bare, By the rebuke of the LORD, At the blast of the breath of his nostrils.

17 He sent from on high, he took me; He drew me out of many waters;

18 He delivered me from my strong enemy, From those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me.

19 They came on me in the day of my calamity; But the LORD was my stay.

20 He brought me forth also into a large place; He delivered me, because he delighted in me.

21 The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; According to the cleanness of my hands has he recompensed me.

22 For I have kept the ways of the LORD, And have not wickedly departed from my God.

23 For all his ordinances were before me; As for his statutes, I did not depart from them.

24 I was also perfect toward him; I kept myself from my iniquity.

25 Therefore has the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to my cleanness in his eyesight.

26 With the merciful you will show yourself merciful; With the perfect man you will show yourself perfect;

27 With the pure you will show yourself pure; With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.

28 The afflicted people you will save; But your eyes are on the haughty, that you may bring them down.

29 For you are my lamp, LORD; The LORD will lighten my darkness.

30 For by you I run on a troop; By my God do I leap over a wall.

31 As for God, his way is perfect: The word of the LORD is tried; He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.

32 For who is God, save the LORD? Who is a rock, save our God?

33 God is my strong fortress; He guides the perfect in his way.

34 He makes his feet like hinds' [feet], Sets me on my high places.

35 He teaches my hands to war, So that my arms do bend a bow of brass.

36 You have also given me the shield of your salvation; Your gentleness has made me great.

37 You have enlarged my steps under me; My feet have not slipped.

38 I have pursued my enemies, and destroyed them; Neither did I turn again until they were consumed.

39 I have consumed them, and struck them through, so that they can't arise: Yes, they are fallen under my feet.

40 For you have girded me with strength to the battle; You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.

41 You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, That I might cut off those who hate me.

42 They looked, but there was none to save; Even to the LORD, but he didn't answer them.

43 Then did I beat them small as the dust of the eretz, I did crush them as the mire of the streets, and did spread them abroad.

44 You also have delivered me from the strivings of my people; You have kept me to be the head of the nations: A people whom I have not known shall serve me.

45 The foreigners shall submit themselves to me: As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me.

46 The foreigners shall fade away, Shall come trembling out of their close places.

47 The LORD lives; Blessed be my rock; Exalted be God, the rock of my salvation,

48 Even the God who executes vengeance for me, Who brings down peoples under me,

49 Who brings me forth from my enemies: Yes, you lift me up above those who rise up against me; You deliver me from the violent man.

50 Therefore I will give thanks to you, LORD, among the nations, Will sing praises to your name.

51 Great deliverance gives he to his king, Shows lovingkindness to his anointed, To David and to his seed, forevermore.

New International Version NIV

1 David sang to the LORD the words of this song when the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul.

2 He said: “The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer;

3 my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior— from violent people you save me.

4 “I called to the LORD, who is worthy of praise, and have been saved from my enemies.

5 The waves of death swirled about me; the torrents of destruction overwhelmed me.

6 The cords of the grave coiled around me; the snares of death confronted me.

7 “In my distress I called to the LORD; I called out to my God. From his temple he heard my voice; my cry came to his ears.

8 The earth trembled and quaked, the foundations of the heavens shook; they trembled because he was angry.

9 Smoke rose from his nostrils; consuming fire came from his mouth, burning coals blazed out of it.

10 He parted the heavens and came down; dark clouds were under his feet.

11 He mounted the cherubim and flew; he soared on the wings of the wind.

12 He made darkness his canopy around him— the dark rain clouds of the sky.

13 Out of the brightness of his presence bolts of lightning blazed forth.

14 The LORD thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded.

15 He shot his arrows and scattered the enemy, with great bolts of lightning he routed them.

16 The valleys of the sea were exposed and the foundations of the earth laid bare at the rebuke of the LORD, at the blast of breath from his nostrils.

17 “He reached down from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep waters.

18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me.

19 They confronted me in the day of my disaster, but the LORD was my support.

20 He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.

21 “The LORD has dealt with me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands he has rewarded me.

22 For I have kept the ways of the LORD; I am not guilty of turning from my God.

23 All his laws are before me; I have not turned away from his decrees.

24 I have been blameless before him and have kept myself from sin.

25 The LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in his sight.

26 “To the faithful you show yourself faithful, to the blameless you show yourself blameless,

27 to the pure you show yourself pure, but to the devious you show yourself shrewd.

28 You save the humble, but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them low.

29 You, LORD, are my lamp; the LORD turns my darkness into light.

30 With your help I can advance against a troop ; with my God I can scale a wall.

31 “As for God, his way is perfect: The LORD’s word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him.

32 For who is God besides the LORD? And who is the Rock except our God?

33 It is God who arms me with strength and keeps my way secure.

34 He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he causes me to stand on the heights.

35 He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

36 You make your saving help my shield; your help has made me great.

37 You provide a broad path for my feet, so that my ankles do not give way.

38 “I pursued my enemies and crushed them; I did not turn back till they were destroyed.

39 I crushed them completely, and they could not rise; they fell beneath my feet.

40 You armed me with strength for battle; you humbled my adversaries before me.

41 You made my enemies turn their backs in flight, and I destroyed my foes.

42 They cried for help, but there was no one to save them— to the LORD, but he did not answer.

43 I beat them as fine as the dust of the earth; I pounded and trampled them like mud in the streets.

44 “You have delivered me from the attacks of the peoples; you have preserved me as the head of nations. People I did not know now serve me,

45 foreigners cower before me; as soon as they hear of me, they obey me.

46 They all lose heart; they come trembling from their strongholds.

47 “The LORD lives! Praise be to my Rock! Exalted be my God, the Rock, my Savior!

48 He is the God who avenges me, who puts the nations under me,

49 who sets me free from my enemies. You exalted me above my foes; from a violent man you rescued me.

50 Therefore I will praise you, LORD, among the nations; I will sing the praises of your name.

51 “He gives his king great victories; he shows unfailing kindness to his anointed, to David and his descendants forever.”
