+# Chapter 18
+1 I love you, Lord, my strength.
+2 The Lord is my rock,
+my fortress, and my deliverer,
+my God, my rock where I seek refuge,
+my shield and the horn of my salvation,
+my stronghold.
+3 I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise,
+and I was saved from my enemies.
+4 The ropes of death were wrapped around me;
+the torrents of destruction terrified me.
+5 The ropes of Sheol entangled me;
+the snares of death confronted me.
+6 I called to the Lord in my distress,
+and I cried to my God for help.
+From his temple he heard my voice,
+and my cry to him reached his ears.
+7 Then the earth shook and quaked;
+the foundations of the mountains trembled;
+they shook because he burned with anger.
+8 Smoke rose from his nostrils,
+and consuming fire came from his mouth;
+coals were set ablaze by it.
+9 He bent the heavens and came down,
+total darkness beneath his feet.
+10 He rode on a cherub and flew,
+soaring on the wings of the wind.
+11 He made darkness his hiding place,
+dark storm clouds his canopy around him.
+12 From the radiance of his presence,
+his clouds swept onward with hail and blazing coals.
+13 The Lord thundered from heaven;
+the Most High made his voice heard.
+14 He shot his arrows and scattered them;
+he hurled lightning bolts and routed them.
+15 The depths of the sea became visible,
+the foundations of the world were exposed,
+at your rebuke, Lord,
+at the blast of the breath of your nostrils.
+16 He reached down from on high
+and took hold of me;
+he pulled me out of deep water.
+17 He rescued me from my powerful enemy
+and from those who hated me,
+for they were too strong for me.
+18 They confronted me in the day of my calamity,
+but the Lord was my support.
+19 He brought me out to a spacious place;
+he rescued me because he delighted in me.
+20 The Lord rewarded me
+according to my righteousness;
+he repaid me
+according to the cleanness of my hands.
+21 For I have kept the ways of the Lord
+and have not turned from my God to wickedness.
+22 Indeed, I let all his ordinances guide me
+and have not disregarded his statutes.
+23 I was blameless toward him
+and kept myself from my iniquity.
+24 So the Lord repaid me
+according to my righteousness,
+according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.
+25 With the faithful
+you prove yourself faithful,
+with the blameless
+you prove yourself blameless,
+26 with the pure
+you prove yourself pure,
+but with the crooked
+you prove yourself shrewd.
+27 For you rescue an oppressed people,
+but you humble those with haughty eyes.
+28 Lord, you light my lamp;
+my God illuminates my darkness.
+29 With you I can attack a barricade,
+and with my God I can leap over a wall.
+30 God—his way is perfect;
+the word of the Lord is pure.
+He is a shield to all who take refuge in him.
+31 For who is God besides the Lord?
+And who is a rock? Only our God.
+32 God—he clothes me with strength
+and makes my way perfect.
+33 He makes my feet like the feet of a deer
+and sets me securely on the heights.
+34 He trains my hands for war;
+my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
+35 You have given me the shield of your salvation;
+your right hand upholds me,
+and your humility exalts me.
+36 You make a spacious place beneath me for my steps,
+and my ankles do not give way.
+37 I pursue my enemies and overtake them;
+I do not turn back until they are wiped out.
+38 I crush them, and they cannot get up;
+they fall beneath my feet.
+39 You have clothed me with strength for battle;
+you subdue my adversaries beneath me.
+40 You have made my enemies retreat before me;
+I annihilate those who hate me.
+41 They cry for help, but there is no one to save them—
+they cry to the Lord, but he does not answer them.
+42 I pulverize them like dust before the wind;
+I trample them like mud in the streets.
+43 You have freed me from the feuds among the people;
+you have appointed me the head of nations;
+a people I had not known serve me.
+44 Foreigners submit to me cringing;
+as soon as they hear they obey me.
+45 Foreigners lose heart
+and come trembling from their fortifications.
+46 The Lord lives—blessed be my rock!
+The God of my salvation is exalted.
+47 God—he grants me vengeance
+and subdues peoples under me.
+48 He frees me from my enemies.
+You exalt me above my adversaries;
+you rescue me from violent men.
+49 Therefore I will give thanks to you among the nations, Lord;
+I will sing praises about your name.
+50 He gives great victories to his king;
+he shows loyalty to his anointed,
+to David and his descendants forever.
