⁶In 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.

⁷Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.

⁸There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.

⁹He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was under his feet.

¹⁰And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.

¹¹He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.

¹²At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed, hail stones and coals of fire.

¹³The Lord also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail stones and coals of fire.

¹⁴Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot out lightnings, and discomfited them.

¹⁵Then 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.

¹⁶He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.

¹⁷He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.

¹⁸They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the Lord was my stay.

¹⁹He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.

²⁰The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.

²¹For I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God.

²²For all his judgments were before me, and I did not put away his statutes from me.

²³I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.

²⁴Therefore hath the Lord recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.

²⁵With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful; with an upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright;

²⁶With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself froward.

²⁷For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.

²⁸For thou wilt light my candle: the Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.

²⁹For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped over a wall.

³⁰As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.

³¹For who is God save the Lord? or who is a rock save our God?

³²It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.

³³He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet, and setteth me upon my high places.

³⁴He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.

³⁵Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great.

³⁶Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.

³⁷I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I turn again till they were consumed.

³⁸I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen under my feet.

³⁹For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.

⁴⁰Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me.

⁴¹They cried, but there was none to save them: even unto the Lord, but he answered them not.

⁴²Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets.

⁴³Thou 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.

⁴⁴As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.

⁴⁵The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.

⁴⁶The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted.

⁴⁷It is God that avengeth me, and subdueth the people under me.

⁴⁸He 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.

⁴⁹Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the heathen, and sing praises unto thy name.

⁵⁰Great deliverance giveth he to his king; and sheweth mercy to his anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore.

⁶In my distresse I called vpon the LORD, and cryed vnto my God: hee heard my voyce out of his temple, and my crie came before him, euen into his eares.

⁷Then the earth shooke and trembled; the foundations also of the hilles mooued and were shaken, because hee was wroth.

^8†There went vp a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth deuoured, coales were kindled by it.

⁹He bowed the heauens also, and came downe: and darkenesse was vnder his feet.

¹⁰And he rode vpon a Cherub, and did flie: yea he did flie vpon the wings of the wind.

¹¹He made darkenes his secret place: his pauilion round about him, were darke waters, and thicke cloudes of the skies.

¹²At the brightnes that was before him his thicke clouds passed, haile stones and coales of fire.

¹³The LORD also thundered in the heauens, and the highest gaue his voyce; hailestones and coales of fire.

¹⁴Yea, he sent out his arrowes, and scattered them; and he shot out lightnings, and discomfited them.

¹⁵Then the chanels of waters were seene, and the foundations of the world were discouered: at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.

^16‖He sent from aboue, he tooke me, he drew me out of many waters.

¹⁷He deliuered me from my strong enemie, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.

¹⁸They preuented me in the day of my calamitie: but the LORD was my stay.

¹⁹He brought me forth also into a large place: he deliuered me, because he delighted in me.

²⁰The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousnesse, according to the cleannesse of my hands hath hee recompensed me.

²¹For I haue kept the wayes of the LORD, and haue not wickedly departed from my God.

²²For all his iudgements were before me, and I did not put away his statutes from me.

^23†I was also vpright before him: and I kept my selfe from mine iniquity.

^24†Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousnesse, according to the cleannesse of my hands in his eye-sight.

²⁵With the mercifull thou wilt shew thy selfe mercifull, with an vpright man thou wilt shew thy selfe vpright.

^26‖With the pure thou wilt shewe thy selfe pure, and with the froward thou wilt shew thy selfe froward.

²⁷For thou wilt saue the afflicted people: but wilt bring downe high lookes.

^28‖For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkenesse.

^29‖For by thee I haue run through a troupe? and by my God haue I leaped ouer 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 saue the LORD? or who is a rocke saue our God?

³² It is God that girdeth mee with strength, and maketh my way perfect.

³³Hee maketh my feete like hindes feete, and setteth me vpon my high places.

³⁴He teacheth my hands to warre, so that a bow of steele is broken by mine armes.

^35‖Thou hast also giuen me the shield of thy saluation: and thy right hand hath holden me vp, and thy gentlenesse hath made me great.

^36†Thou hast enlarged my steppes vnder me; that my feete did not slippe.

³⁷I haue pursued mine enemies, and ouertaken them: neither did I turne againe till they were consumed.

³⁸I haue wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen vnder my feete.

^39†For thou hast girded mee with strength vnto the battell: thou hast subdued vnder me, those that rose vp against me.

⁴⁰Thou hast also giuen mee the neckes of mine enemies: that I might destroy them that hate me.

⁴¹They cried, but there was none to saue them: euen vnto the LORD, but he answered them not.

⁴²Then did I beate them small as the dust before the winde: I did cast them out, as the dirt in the streetes.

⁴³Thou hast deliuered me from the striuings of the people, and thou hast made mee the head of the heathen: a people whom I haue not knowen, shall serue me.

^44††‖As soone as they heare of mee, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselues vnto me.

⁴⁵The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.

⁴⁶The LORD liueth, and blessed be my rocke: and let the God of my saluation be exalted.

^47†‖ It is God that auengeth mee, and subdueth the people vnder me.

^48†He deliuereth me from mine enemies: yea thou liftest mee vp aboue those that rise vp against me; thou hast deliuered me from the violent man.

^49*‖Therfore will I giue thankes vnto thee, (O LORD) among the heathen: and sing prayses vnto thy name.

⁵⁰Great deliuerance giueth he to his King: and sheweth mercy to his Annointed, to Dauid, and to his seede for euermore.
