(Psa 144:1) Blessed {be} the Lord my strength which teacheth my hands to war, {and} my fingers to fight:
(Psa 144:2) My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and {he} in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.
(Psa 144:3) Lord, what {is} man, that thou takest knowledge of him! {or} the son of man, that thou makest account of him!
(Psa 144:4) Man is like to vanity: his days {are} as a shadow that passeth away.
(Psa 144:5) Bow thy heavens, O Lord, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
(Psa 144:6) Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and destroy them.
(Psa 144:7) Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children;
(Psa 144:8) Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand {is} a right hand of falsehood.
(Psa 144:9) I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery {and} an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee.
(Psa 144:10) {It is he} that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword.
(Psa 144:11) Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand {is} a right hand of falsehood:
(Psa 144:12) That our sons {may be} as plants grown up in their youth; {that} our daughters {may be} as corner stones, polished {after} the similitude of a palace:
(Psa 144:13) {That} our garners {may be} full, affording all manner of store: {that} our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets:
(Psa 144:14) {That} our oxen {may be} strong to labour; {that there be} no breaking in, nor going out; that {there be} no complaining in our streets.
(Psa 144:15) Happy {is that} people, that is in such a case: {yea}, happy {is that} people, whose God {is} the Lord.
