18 - David And The High Spirit

Chapter 18

I love thee O Lord my strength

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 strong hold

I call upon the Lord who is worthy to be praised

And I am saved from my enemies

The cords of death encompassed me

The torrents of perdition assailed me

The cords of Sheol entangled me

The snares of death confronted me

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

Then the earth reeled and rocked

The foundations also of the mountains trembled

And quaked because he was angry

Smoke went up from his nostrils

And devouring fire from his mouth

Glowing coals flamed forth from him

He bowed the heavens and came down

Thick darkness was under his feet

He rode on a cherub and flew

He came swiftly upon the wings of the wind

He made darkness his covering around him

His canopy thick clouds dark with water

Out of the brightness before him

There broke through his clouds

Hailstones and coals of fire

The Lord also thundered in the heavens

And the Most High uttered his voice

Hailstones and coals of fire

And he sent out his arrows and scattered them

He flashed forth lightnings and routed them

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

He reached from on high he took me

He drew me out of many waters

He delivered me from my strong enemy

And from those who hated me

For they were too mighty for me

They came upon me in the day of my calamity

But the Lord was my stay

He brought me forth into a broad place

He delivered me because he delighted in me

The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness

According to the cleanness of my hands he recompensed me

For I have kept the ways of the Lord

And have not wickedly departed from my God

For all his ordinances were before me

And his statutes I did not put away from me

I was blameless before him

And I kept myself from guilt

Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness

According to the cleanness of my hands in his sight

With the loyal thou dost show thyself loyal

With the blameless man thou dost show thyself blameless

With the pure thou dost show thyself pure

And with the crooked thou dost show thyself perverse

For thou dost deliver a humble people

But the haughty eyes thou dost bring down

Yea thou dost light my lamp

The Lord my God lightens my darkness

Yea by thee I can crush a troop

And by my God I can leap over a wall

This God his way is perfect

The promise of the Lord proves true

He is a refuge for all those who take refuge in him

For who is God but the Lord

And who is a rock except our God

The God who girded me with strength

And made my way safe

He made my feet like hinds feet

And set me secure on the heights

He trains my hands for war

So that my arms can bend a bow of bronze

Thou hast given me the shield of thy salvation

And thy right hand supported me

And thy help made me great

Thou didst give me a wide place for my steps under me

And my feet did not slip

I pursued my enemies and overtook them

And did not turn back till they were consumed

I thrust them through so that they were not able to rise

They fell under my feet

For thou didst gird me with strength for the battle

Thou didst make my assailants sink under me

Thou didst make my enemies turn their backs to me

And those who hated me I destroyed

They cried for help but there was none to save

They cried to the Lord but he did not answer them

I beat them fine as dust before the wind

I cast them out like the mire of the streets

Thou didst deliver me from strife with the peoples

Thou didst make me the head of the nations

People whom I had not known served me

As soon as they heard of me they obeyed me

Foreigners came cringing to me

Foreigners lost heart

And came trembling out of their fastnesses

The Lord lives and blessed be my rock

And exalted be the God of my salvation

The God who gave me vengeance

Do peoples before me

Who delivered me from my enemies

Yea thou didst exalt me above my adversaries

Thou didst deliver me from men of violence

For this I will extol thee O Lord among the nations

And sing praises to thy name

Great triumphs he gives to his king

And shows steadfast love to his anointed

To David and his descendants for ever
