1-I love thee, O Lord, my strength.
2-The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
3-I call upon the Lord, who is worthy t be praised, and I am saved from my enemies.
4-The cords of death encompassed me, the torrents of perdition assailed me;
5-the cords of Sheol entangled me, the snares of death confronted me.
6-In my distress I called upon the Lord; to my God I cried for help. From his temple he heard my voice, and my cry to him reached his ears.
7-Then the earth reeled and rocked; the foundations also of the mountains trembled and quaked, because he was angry.
8-Smoke went up from his nostrils, and devouring fire from his mouth; glowing coals flamed forth from him.
9-He bowed the heavens, and came down; thick darkness was under his feet.
10-He rode on a cherub, and flew; he came swiftly upon the wings of the wind.
11-He made darkness his covering around him, his canopy thick clouds dark with water.
12-Out of the brightness before him there broke through his clouds hailstones and coals of fire.
13-The Lord also thundered in the heavens, and the Most High uttered his voice, hailstones and coals of fire.
14-And he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; he flashed forth lightnings, and routed them.
15-Then the channels of the sea were seen, and the foundations of the world were laid bare, at thy rebuke, O Lord, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
16-He reached from on high, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.
17-He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me.
18-They came upon me in the day of my calamity; but the Lord was my stay.
19-He brought me forth into a broad place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
20-The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands he recompensed me.
21-For I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22-For all his ordinances were before me, and his statutes I did not put away from me.
23-I was blameless before him, and I kept myself from guilt.
24-Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.
25-With the loyal thou dost show thyself loyal; with the blameless man thou dost show thyself blameless;
26-with the pure thou dost show thyself pure; and with the crooked thou dost show thyself perverse.
27-For thou dost deliver a humble people; but the haughty eyes thou dost bring down.
28-Yea, thou dost light my lamp; the Lord my God lightens my darkness.
29-Yea, by thee I can crush a troop; and by my God I can leap over a wall.
30-This God－is way is perfect; the promise of the Lord proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.
31-For who is God, but the Lord? And who is a rock, except our God?－
32-the God who girded me with strength, and made my way safe.
33-He made my feet like hinds’ feet, and set me secure on the heights.
34-He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
35-Thou hast given me the shield of thy salvation, and thy right hand supported me, and thy help made me great.
36-Thou didst give a wide place for my steps under me, and my feet did not slip.
37-I pursued my enemies and overtook them; and did not turn back till they were consumed.
38-I thrust them through, so that they were not able to rise; they fell under my feet.
39-For thou didst gird me with strength for the battle; thou didst make my assailants sink under me.
40-Thou didst make my enemies turn their back to me, and those who hated me I destroyed.
41-They cried for help, but there was none to save, they cried to the Lord, but he did not answer them.
42-I beat them fine as dust before the wind; I cast them out like the mire of the streets.
43-Thou didst deliver my from strife with the peoples ; thou didst make me the head of the nations; people whom I had not known served me.
44-As soon as the heard of me they obeyed me; foreigners came cringing to me.
45-Foreigners lost heart, and came trembling out of their fastnesses.
46-The Lord lives; and blessed be my rock, and exalted be the God of my salvation,
47-the God who gave me vengeance and subdued peoples under me;
48-who delivered me from my enemies; yea, thou didst exalt me above my adversaries; thou didst deliver my from men of violence.
49-For this I will extol thee, O Lord, among the nations, and sing praises to thy name.
50-Great triumphs he gives to his king, and shows steadfast love to his anointed, to David and his descendants for ever.
