PSALM 18
The LORD Praised for Rescuing David.
For the music director. A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD, [fn]who spoke to the LORD the words of this song on the day that the LORD rescued him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. And he said,
1 “I love H7355 You, LORD H3068, my strength H2391.”
2 The LORD H3068 is my rock H5553 and my fortress H4686 and my savior H6403,
My God H410, my rock H6697, in whom I take H2620 refuge H2620;
My shield H4043 and the horn H7161 of my salvation H3468, my stronghold H4869.
3 I call H7121 upon the LORD H3068, who is worthy to be praised H1984,
And I am saved H3467 from my enemies H340.
4 The ropes H2256 of death H4194 encompassed H661 me,
And the torrents H5158 of [fn]destruction H1100 [fn]terrified H1204 me.
5 The ropes H2256 of [fn]Sheol H7585 surrounded H5437 me;
The snares H4170 of death H4194 confronted H6923 me.
6 In my distress H6862 I called H7121 upon the LORD H3068,
And cried H7768 to my God H430 for H7768 help H7768;
He heard H8085 my voice H6963 from His temple H1964,
And my cry H7775 for H7775 help H7775 before H6440 Him came H935 into His ears H241.
7 Then the earth H776 shook H1607 and quaked H7493;
And the foundations H4144 of the mountains H2022 were trembling H7264
And were shaken H1607, because H3588 He was H2734 angry H2734.
8 Smoke H6227 went H5927 up H5927 [fn]out of His nostrils H639,
And fire H784 from His mouth H6310 was devouring H398;
Coals H1513 burned H1197 from it.
9 He also bowed H5186 the heavens H8064 down H5186 low H5186, and came H3381 down H3381
With thick H6205 darkness H6205 under H8478 His feet H7272.
10 He rode H7392 on a cherub H3742 and flew H5774;
And He sped H1675 on the wings H3671 of the wind H7307.
11 He made H7896 darkness H2822 His hiding H5643 place H5643, His [fn]canopy H5521 around H5439 Him,
Darkness H2825 of waters H4325, thick H5645 clouds H5645 H7834.
12 From the brightness H5051 before H5048 Him passed H5674 His thick H5645 clouds H5645,
Hailstones H1259 and coals H1513 of fire H784.
13 The LORD H3068 also thundered H7481 in the heavens H8064,
And the Most H5945 High H5945 uttered H5414 His voice H6963,
Hailstones H1259 and coals H1513 of fire H784.
14 He sent H7971 out H7971 His arrows H2671, and scattered H6327 them,
And lightning H1300 flashes H1300 in abundance H7227, and [fn]routed H2000 them.
15 Then the channels H650 of water H4325 appeared H7200,
And the foundations H4144 of the world H8398 were exposed H1540
By Your rebuke H1606, LORD H3068,
At the blast H5397 of the breath H7307 of Your nostrils H639.
16 He sent H7971 from on high H4791, He took H3947 me;
He drew H4871 me out H4871 of many H7227 waters H4325.
17 He saved H5337 me from my strong H5794 enemy H340,
And from those who hated H8130 me, for they were too H4480 mighty H553 for me.
18 They confronted H6923 me in the day H3117 of my disaster H343,
But the LORD H3068 was my support H4937.
19 He also brought H3318 me out H3318 into an open H4800 place H4800;
He rescued H2502 me, because H3588 He delighted H2654 in me.
20 The LORD H3068 has rewarded H1580 me according to my righteousness H6664;
According to the cleanness H1252 of my hands H3027 He has repaid H7725 me.
21 For I have kept H8104 the ways H1870 of the LORD H3068,
And have not acted H7561 wickedly H7561 against H4480 my God H430.
22 For all H3605 His judgments H4941 were before H5048 me,
And I did not put H5493 away H5493 His statutes H2708 from me.
23 I was also [fn]blameless H8549 with Him,
And I kept H8104 myself from my wrongdoing H5771.
24 Therefore the LORD H3068 has repaid H7725 me according to my righteousness H6664,
According to the cleanness H1252 of my hands H3027 in His eyes H5869.
25 With the faithful H2623 You show H2616 Yourself faithful H2616;
With the [fn]blameless H8549 You prove H8552 Yourself blameless H8552;
26 With the pure H1305 You show H1305 Yourself pure H1305,
And with the crooked H6141 You show H6617 Yourself [fn]astute H6617.
27 For You save H3467 an afflicted H6041 people H5971,
But You humiliate H8213 haughty H7311 eyes H5869.
28 For You light H215 my lamp H5216;
The LORD H3068 my God H430 illumines H5050 my darkness H2822.
29 For by You I can run H7323 at a [fn]troop H1416 of H1416 warriors H1416;
And by my God H430 I can leap H1801 over a wall H7791.
30 As for God H410, His way H1870 is [fn]blameless H8549;
The word H565 of the LORD H3068 is refined H6884;
He is a shield H4043 to all H3605 who take H2620 refuge H2620 in Him.
31 For who H4310 is God H433, but the LORD H3068?
And who H4310 is a rock H6697, except H2108 our God H430,
32 The God H410 who encircles H247 me with strength H2428,
And [fn]makes H5414 my way H1870 [fn]blameless H8549?
33 He makes H7737 my feet H7272 like deer’s H355 feet,
And sets H5975 me up on my high H1116 places H1116.
34 He trains H3925 my hands H3027 for battle H4421,
So that my arms H2220 can bend H5181 a bow H7198 of bronze H5154.
35 You have also given H5414 me the shield H4043 of Your salvation H3468,
And Your right H3225 hand H3225 upholds H5582 me;
And Your [fn]gentleness H6038 makes H7235 me great H7235.
36 You enlarge H7337 my steps H6806 under H8478 me,
And my [fn]feet H7166 have not slipped H4571.
37 I pursued H7291 my enemies H340 and overtook H5381 them,
And I did not turn H7725 back H7725 until H5704 they were consumed H3615.
38 I shattered H4272 them, so that they were H3201 not able H3201 to rise H6965;
They fell H5307 under H8478 my feet H7272.
39 For You have encircled H247 me with strength H2428 for battle H4421;
You have forced those who rose H6965 up H6965 against me to bow H3766 down H3766 under H8478 me.
40 You have also made H5414 my enemies H340 turn H5414 their backs H6203 to me,
And I [fn]destroyed H6789 those who hated H8130 me.
41 They cried H7768 for H7768 help H7768, but there H369 was H369 no H369 one H369 to save H3467,
They cried to the LORD H3068, but He did not answer H6030 them.
42 Then I beat H7833 them fine H7833 like the dust H6083 before H5921 H6440 the wind H7307;
I emptied H7324 them out H7324 like the mud H2916 of the streets H2351.
43 You have rescued H6403 me from the contentions H7379 of the people H5971;
You have placed H7760 me as head H7218 of the nations H1471;
A people H5971 whom I have not known H3045 serve H5647 me.
44 As soon as they hear H8088 H241, they obey H8085 me;
Foreigners H1121 H5236 pretend H3584 to H3584 obey H3584 me.
45 Foreigners H1121 H5236 lose H5034 heart H5034,
And come H2727 trembling H2727 out of their [fn]fortresses H4526.
46 The LORD H3068 lives H2416, and blessed H1288 be my rock H6697;
And exalted H7311 be the God H430 of my salvation H3468,
47 The God H410 who executes H5414 vengeance H5360 for me,
And subdues H1696 peoples H5971 under H8478 me.
48 He rescues H6403 me from my enemies H340;
You indeed H637 lift H7311 me above H4480 those who rise H6965 up H6965 against me;
You rescue H5337 me from a violent H2555 man H376.
49 Therefore H5921 H3651 I will give H3034 thanks H3034 to You among the nations H1471, LORD H3068,
And I will sing H2167 praises H2167 to Your name H8034.
50 He gives H1431 great H1431 [fn]salvation H3444 to His king H4428,
And shows H6213 faithfulness H2617 to His anointed H4899,
To David H1732 and his [fn]descendants H2233 forever H5704 H5769.
