Book 19 : PSALMS - Chapter 018
018:001
The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my
God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the
horn of my salvation, and my high tower
018:002
I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so
shall I be saved from mine enemies
018:003
The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly
men made me afraid
018:004
The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death
prevented me
018:005
In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God:
he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before
him, even into his ears
018:006
Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the
hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth
018:007
There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his
mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it
018:008
He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was
under his feet
018:009
And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon
the wings of the wind
018:010
He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about
him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies
018:011
At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed,
hail stones and coals of fire
018:012
The LORD also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave
his voice; hail stones and coals of fire
018:013
Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot
out lightnings, and discomfited them
018:014
Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of
the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast
of the breath of thy nostrils
018:015
He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters
018:016
He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which
hated me: for they were too strong for me
018:017
They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was
my stay
018:018
He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me,
because he delighted in me
018:019
The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; according
to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me
018:020
For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly
departed from my God
018:021
For all his judgments were before me, and I did not put away
his statutes from me
018:022
I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine
iniquity
018:023
Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my
righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his
eyesight
018:024
With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful; with an
upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright
018:025
With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the
froward thou wilt shew thyself froward
018:026
For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down
high looks
018:027
For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten
my darkness
018:028
For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I
leaped over a wall
018:029
As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried:
he is a buckler to all those that trust in him
018:030
For who is God save the LORD? or who is a rock save our God
018:031
It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way
perfect
018:032
He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my
high places
018:033
He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken
by mine arms
018:034
Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy
right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me
great
018:035
Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not
slip
018:036
I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I
turn again till they were consumed
018:037
I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are
fallen under my feet
018:038
For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou
hast subdued under me those that rose up against me
018:039
Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I
might destroy them that hate me
018:040
They cried, but there was none to save them: even unto the
LORD, but he answered them not
018:041
Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did
cast them out as the dirt in the streets
018:042
Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; and
thou hast made me the head of the heathen: a people whom I
have not known shall serve me
018:043
As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers
shall submit themselves unto me
018:044
The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their
close places
018:045
The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my
salvation be exalted
018:046
It is God that avengeth me, and subdueth the people under me
018:047
He delivereth me from mine enemies: yea, thou liftest me up
above those that rise up against me: thou hast delivered me
from the violent man
018:048
Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the
heathen, and sing praises unto thy name
018:049
Great deliverance giveth he to his king; and sheweth mercy to
his anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore
