1 And David spoke to Jehovah the words of this song in the day that Jehovah had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul:
2 And he said, Jehovah is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer;
3 The God of my Rock; I will flee for protection in Him; He is my Shield, and the Horn of my salvation, my high Tower, and my Refuge, my Savior; You save me from violence.
4 I will call on Jehovah, Who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from my enemies.
5 When the waves of death surrounded me, the floods of men of Belial made me afraid;
6 The sorrows of hell surrounded me about; the snares of death came before me;
7 In my distress I called upon Jehovah, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.
8 Then the Earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was angry.
9 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.
11 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
12 And he made darkness pavilions on every side of Him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.
13 Through the brightness before Him were coals of fire kindled.
14 Jehovah thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his voice.
15 And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
16 And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of Jehovah, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
17 He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;
18 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from those who hated me: for they were too strong for me.
19 They came before me in the day of my calamity: but Jehovah was my stay.
20 He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
21 Jehovah rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands has he recompensed me.
22 For I have kept the ways of Jehovah, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
23 For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.
24 I was also upright before Him, and have kept myself from my iniquity.
25 Therefore Jehovah has recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.
26 With the holy You will show Yourself kind, and with the completely mature mighty man You will show Yourself upright.
27 The pure You will purify; The twisted You will twist.
28 And the afflicted people you will save: but your eyes are upon the haughty, that you may bring them down.
29 For You are my Lamp,  oh, Jehovah, and Jehovah will lighten my darkness.
30 For by you I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall.
31 As for God, His way is completely trustworthy; the Utterance of Jehovah is refined; He is a shield to all those who flee to God for protection.
32 For who is God, save Jehovah? And who is a rock, save our God?
33 God is my strength and power: and he makes my way completely trustworthy.
34 He makes my feet like hinds' feet: and sets me upon my high places.
35 He teaches my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by my arms.
36 You have also given me the shield of your salvation: and your humiliation has made me great.
37 You have enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not slip.
38 I have pursued my enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them.
39 And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yes, they are fallen under my feet.
40 For you have girded me with strength to battle: those who rose up against me have you subdued under me.
41 You have also given me the necks of my enemies, that I might destroy those who hate me.
42 They looked, but there was none to save; even to Jehovah, but he answered them not.
43 Then did I beat them as small as the dust of the Earth, I did stamp them as the mire of the street, and did spread them abroad.
44 You also have delivered me from the strivings of my people, you have kept me to be head of the heathen: a people which I did not know shall serve me.
45 Strangers shall submit themselves to me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient to me.
46 Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places.
47 Jehovah lives; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.
48 It is God that avenges me, and that brings down the people under me,
49 And that brings me forth from my enemies: you also have lifted me up on high above those who rose up against me: you have delivered me from the violent man.
50 Therefore I will give thanks to You,  oh, Jehovah, among the heathen, and I will sing praises to Your Name.
51 He is the tower of salvation for His king: and shows mercy to His anointed, to David, and to his seed to the Kingdom Age.
