2 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
3 I will call upon the LORD who is worthy to be praised so shall I be saved from mine enemies
4 The sorrows of death compassed me and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid
5 The sorrows of hell compassed me about the snares of death prevented me
6 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
7 Then the earth shook and trembled the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken because he was wroth
8 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils and fire out of his mouth devoured coals were kindled by it
9 He bowed the heavens also and came down and darkness was under his feet
10 And he rode upon a cherub and did fly yea he did fly upon the wings of the wind
11 He made darkness his secret place his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies
12 At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed hail stones and coals of fire
13 The LORD also thundered in the heavens and the Highest gave his voice hail stones and coals of fire
14 Yea he sent out his arrows and scattered them and he shot out lightnings and discomfited them
15 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
16 He sent from above he took me he drew me out of many waters
17 He delivered me from my strong enemy and from them which hated me for they were too strong for me
18 They prevented me in the day of my calamity but the LORD was my stay
19 He brought me forth also into a large place he delivered me because he delighted in me
20 The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me
21 For I have kept the ways of the LORD and have not wickedly departed from my God
22 For all his judgments were before me and I did not put away his statutes from me
23 I was also upright before him and I kept myself from mine iniquity
24 Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight
25 With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful with an upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright
26 With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself froward
27 For thou wilt save the afflicted people but wilt bring down high looks
28 For thou wilt light my candle the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness
29 For by thee I have run through a troop and by my God have I leaped over a wall
30 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
31 For who is God save the LORD or who is a rock save our God
32 It is God that girdeth me with strength and maketh my way perfect
33 He maketh my feet like hinds' feet and setteth me upon my high places
34 He teacheth my hands to war so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms
35 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
36 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me that my feet did not slip
37 I have pursued mine enemies and overtaken them neither did I turn again till they were consumed
38 I have wounded them that they were not able to rise they are fallen under my feet
39 For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me
40 Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies that I might destroy them that hate me
41 They cried but there was none to save them even unto the LORD but he answered them not
42 Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets
43 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
44 As soon as they hear __ of me they shall obey me the strangers __ shall submit themselves unto me
45 The strangers __ shall fade away and be afraid out of their close places
46 The LORD liveth and blessed be my rock and let the God of my salvation be exalted
47 It is God that avengeth __ me and subdueth the people under me
48 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
49 Therefore will I give thanks unto thee O LORD among the heathen and sing praises unto thy name
50 Great deliverance giveth he to his king and sheweth mercy to his anointed to David and to his seed for evermore
