# Chapter 18
|
||||
1 I love you, 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 to be praised,
|
||||
and I am saved from my enemies.
|
||||
4 The cords of death encompassed me;
|
||||
the torrents of destruction 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 on the wings of the wind.
|
||||
11 He made darkness his covering, his canopy around him,
|
||||
thick clouds dark with water.
|
||||
12 Out of the brightness before him
|
||||
hailstones and coals of fire broke through his clouds.
|
||||
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 your rebuke, O Lord,
|
||||
at the blast of the breath of your nostrils.
|
||||
16 He sent from on high, he took me;
|
||||
he drew me out of many waters.
|
||||
17 He rescued me from my strong enemy
|
||||
and from those who hated me,
|
||||
for they were too mighty for me.
|
||||
18 They confronted me in the day of my calamity,
|
||||
but the Lord was my support.
|
||||
19 He brought me out into a broad place;
|
||||
he rescued me, because he delighted in me.
|
||||
20 The Lord dealt with me according to my righteousness;
|
||||
according to the cleanness of my hands he rewarded me.
|
||||
21 For I have kept the ways of the Lord,
|
||||
and have not wickedly departed from my God.
|
||||
22 For all his rules were before me,
|
||||
and his statutes I did not put away from me.
|
||||
23 I was blameless before him,
|
||||
and I kept myself from my guilt.
|
||||
24 So the Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness,
|
||||
according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.
|
||||
25 With the merciful you show yourself merciful;
|
||||
with the blameless man you show yourself blameless;
|
||||
26 with the purified you show yourself pure;
|
||||
and with the crooked you make yourself seem tortuous.
|
||||
27 For you save a humble people,
|
||||
but the haughty eyes you bring down.
|
||||
28 For it is you who light my lamp;
|
||||
the Lord my God lightens my darkness.
|
||||
29 For by you I can run against a troop,
|
||||
and by my God I can leap over a wall.
|
||||
30 This God—his way is perfect;
|
||||
the word 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 equipped me with strength
|
||||
and made my way blameless.
|
||||
33 He made my feet like the feet of a deer
|
||||
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 You have given me the shield of your salvation,
|
||||
and your right hand supported me,
|
||||
and your gentleness made me great.
|
||||
36 You gave 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 you equipped me with strength for the battle;
|
||||
you made those who rise against me sink under me.
|
||||
40 You made my enemies turn their backs 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 You delivered me from strife with the people;
|
||||
you made me the head of the nations;
|
||||
people whom I had not known served me.
|
||||
44 As soon as they heard of me they obeyed me;
|
||||
foreigners came cringing to me.
|
||||
45 Foreigners lost heart
|
||||
and came trembling out of their fortresses.
|
||||
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 rescued me from my enemies;
|
||||
yes, you exalted me above those who rose against me;
|
||||
you delivered me from the man of violence.
|
||||
49 For this I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations,
|
||||
and sing to your name.
|
||||
50 Great salvation he brings to his king,
|
||||
and shows steadfast love to his anointed,
|
||||
to David and his offspring forever.
