Psalms 144
King James Version

1 Blessed be the Lord my strength
which teacheth my hands to war,
and my fingers to fight:​
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.​

3 Lord, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him!
or the son of man, that thou makest account of him!​
4 Man is like to vanity:
his days are as a shadow that passeth away.​

5 Bow thy heavens, O Lord, and come down:
touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.​
6 Cast forth lightning, and scatter them:
shoot out thine arrows, and destroy them.​
7 Send thine hand from above; rid me,
and deliver me out of great waters,
from the hand of strange children;​
8 Whose mouth speaketh vanity,
and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.​

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.​
10 It is he that giveth salvation unto kings:
who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword.​

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:​
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:​
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:​
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.​
15 Happy is that people, that is in such a case:
yea, happy is that people, whose God is the Lord.​
