2 Samuel 22

The Message Bible MSG

1 David prayed to God the words of this song after God saved him from all his enemies and from Saul.

2 God is bedrock under my feet, the castle in which I live, my rescuing knight.

3 My God - the high crag where I run for dear life, hiding behind the boulders, safe in the granite hideout; My mountaintop refuge, he saves me from ruthless men.

4 I sing to God the Praise-Lofty, and find myself safe and saved.

5 The waves of death crashed over me, devil waters rushed over me.

6 Hell's ropes cinched me tight; death traps barred every exit.

7 A hostile world! I called to God, to my God I cried out. From his palace he heard me call; my cry brought me right into his presence - a private audience!

8 Earth wobbled and lurched; the very heavens shook like leaves, Quaked like aspen leaves because of his rage.

9 His nostrils flared, billowing smoke; his mouth spit fire. Tongues of fire darted in and out;

10 he lowered the sky. He stepped down; under his feet an abyss opened up.

11 He rode a winged creature, swift on wind-wings.

12 He wrapped himself in a trenchcoat of black rain-cloud darkness.

13 But his cloud-brightness burst through, a grand comet of fireworks.

14 Then God thundered out of heaven; the High God gave a great shout.

15 God shot his arrows - pandemonium! He hurled his lightnings - a rout!

16 The secret sources of ocean were exposed, the hidden depths of earth lay uncovered The moment God roared in protest, let loose his hurricane anger.

17 But me he caught - reached all the way from sky to sea; he pulled me out

18 Of that ocean of hate, that enemy chaos, the void in which I was drowning.

19 They hit me when I was down, but God stuck by me.

20 He stood me up on a wide-open field; I stood there saved - surprised to be loved!

21 God made my life complete when I placed all the pieces before him. When I cleaned up my act, he gave me a fresh start.

22 Indeed, I've kept alert to God's ways; I haven't taken God for granted.

23 Every day I review the ways he works, I try not to miss a trick.

24 I feel put back together, and I'm watching my step.

25 God rewrote the text of my life when I opened the book of my heart to his eyes.

26 You stick by people who stick with you, you're straight with people who're straight with you,

27 You're good to good people, you shrewdly work around the bad ones.

28 You take the side of the down-and-out, but the stuck-up you take down a peg.

29 Suddenly, God, your light floods my path, God drives out the darkness.

30 I smash the bands of marauders, I vault the high fences.

31 What a God! His road stretches straight and smooth. Every God-direction is road-tested. Everyone who runs toward him Makes it.

32 Is there any god like God? Are we not at bedrock?

33 Is not this the God who armed me well, then aimed me in the right direction?

34 Now I run like a deer; I'm king of the mountain.

35 He shows me how to fight; I can bend a bronze bow!

36 You protect me with salvation-armor; you touch me and I feel ten feet tall.

37 You cleared the ground under me so my footing was firm.

38 When I chased my enemies I caught them; I didn't let go till they were dead men.

39 I nailed them; they were down for good; then I walked all over them.

40 You armed me well for this fight; you smashed the upstarts.

41 You made my enemies turn tail, and I wiped out the haters.

42 They cried "uncle" but Uncle didn't come; They yelled for God and got no for an answer.

43 I ground them to dust; they gusted in the wind. I threw them out, like garbage in the gutter.

44 You rescued me from a squabbling people; you made me a leader of nations. People I'd never heard of served me;

45 the moment they got wind of me they submitted.

46 They gave up; they came trembling from their hideouts.

47 Live, God! Blessing to my Rock, my towering Salvation-God!

48 This God set things right for me and shut up the people who talked back.

49 He rescued me from enemy anger. You pulled me from the grip of upstarts, You saved me from the bullies.

50 That's why I'm thanking you, God, all over the world. That's why I'm singing songs that rhyme your name.

51 God's king takes the trophy; God's chosen is beloved. I mean David and all his children - always.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 locutus est autem David Domino verba carminis huius in die qua liberavit eum Dominus de manu omnium inimicorum suorum et de manu Saul

2 et ait Dominus petra mea et robur meum et salvator meus

3 Deus meus fortis meus sperabo in eum scutum meum et cornu salutis meae elevator meus et refugium meum salvator meus de iniquitate liberabis me

4 laudabilem invocabo Dominum et ab inimicis meis salvus ero

5 quia circumdederunt me contritiones mortis torrentes Belial terruerunt me

6 funes inferi circumdederunt me praevenerunt me laquei mortis

7 in tribulatione mea invocabo Dominum et ad Deum meum clamabo et exaudiet de templo suo vocem meam et clamor meus veniet ad aures eius

8 commota est et contremuit terra fundamenta montium concussa sunt et conquassata quoniam iratus est

9 ascendit fumus de naribus eius et ignis de ore eius voravit carbones incensi sunt ab eo

10 et inclinavit caelos et descendit et caligo sub pedibus eius

11 et ascendit super cherubin et volavit et lapsus est super pinnas venti

12 posuit tenebras in circuitu suo latibulum cribrans aquas de nubibus caelorum

13 prae fulgore in conspectu eius succensi sunt carbones ignis

14 tonabit de caelis Dominus et Excelsus dabit vocem suam

15 misit sagittas et dissipavit eos fulgur et consumpsit eos

16 et apparuerunt effusiones maris et revelata sunt fundamenta orbis ab increpatione Domini ab inspiratione spiritus furoris eius

17 misit de excelso et adsumpsit me extraxit me de aquis multis

18 liberavit me ab inimico meo potentissimo ab his qui oderant me quoniam robustiores me erant

19 praevenit me in die adflictionis meae et factus est Dominus firmamentum meum

20 et eduxit me in latitudinem liberavit me quia placuit ei

21 retribuet mihi Dominus secundum iustitiam meam et secundum munditiam manuum mearum reddet mihi

22 quia custodivi vias Domini et non egi impie a Deo meo

23 omnia enim iudicia eius in conspectu meo et praecepta eius non amovi a me

24 et ero perfectus cum eo et custodiam me ab iniquitate mea

25 et restituet Dominus mihi secundum iustitiam meam et secundum munditiam manuum mearum in conspectu oculorum suorum

26 cum sancto sanctus eris et cum robusto perfectus

27 cum electo electus eris et cum perverso perverteris

28 et populum pauperem salvum facies oculisque tuis excelsos humiliabis

29 quia tu lucerna mea Domine et Domine inluminabis tenebras meas

30 in te enim curram accinctus in Deo meo transiliam murum

31 Deus inmaculata via eius eloquium Domini igne examinatum scutum est omnium sperantium in se

32 quis est deus praeter Dominum et quis fortis praeter Deum nostrum

33 Deus qui accingit me fortitudine et conplanavit perfectam viam meam

34 coaequans pedes meos cervis et super excelsa mea statuens me

35 docens manus meas ad proelium et conponens quasi arcum aereum brachia mea

36 dedisti mihi clypeum salutis tuae et mansuetudo mea multiplicavit me

37 dilatabis gressus meos subtus me et non deficient tali mei

38 persequar inimicos meos et conteram et non revertar donec consumam eos

39 consumam eos et confringam ut non consurgant cadent sub pedibus meis

40 accinxisti me fortitudine ad proelium incurvabis resistentes mihi sub me

41 inimicos meos dedisti mihi dorsum odientes me et disperdam eos

42 clamabunt et non erit qui salvet ad Dominum et non exaudiet eos

43 delebo eos ut pulverem terrae quasi lutum platearum comminuam eos atque conpingam

44 salvabis me a contradictionibus populi mei custodies in caput gentium populus quem ignoro serviet mihi

45 filii alieni resistent mihi auditu auris oboedient mihi

46 filii alieni defluxerunt et contrahentur in angustiis suis

47 vivit Dominus et benedictus Deus meus et exaltabitur Deus fortis salutis meae

48 Deus qui das vindictas mihi et deicis populos sub me

49 qui educis me ab inimicis meis et a resistentibus mihi elevas me a viro iniquo liberabis me

50 propterea confitebor tibi Domine in gentibus et nomini tuo cantabo

51 magnificanti salutes regis sui et facienti misericordiam christo suo David et semini eius in sempiternum
