Blessed be the LORD, ^amy rock,Who ^btrains my hands for war,And my fingers for battle;2 My lovingkindness and ^amy fortress,My ^bstronghold and my deliverer,My ^cshield and He in whom I take refuge,Who ^dsubdues ¹my people under me.3 O LORD, ^awhat is man, that You take knowledge of him?Or the son of man, that You think of him?4 ^aMan is like a mere breath;His ^bdays are like a passing shadow.

5 ^aBow Your heavens, O LORD, and ^bcome down;^cTouch the mountains, that they may smoke.6 Flash forth ^alightning and scatter them;Send out Your ^barrows and confuse them.7 Stretch forth Your hand ^afrom on high;Rescue me and ^bdeliver me out of great waters,Out of the hand of ^caliens8 Whose mouths ^aspeak deceit,And whose ^bright hand is a right hand of falsehood.

9 I will sing a ^anew song to You, O God;Upon a ^bharp of ten strings I will sing praises to You,10 Who ^agives salvation to kings,Who ^brescues David His servant from the evil sword.11 Rescue me and deliver me out of the hand of ^aaliens,Whose mouth ^bspeaks deceitAnd whose ^cright hand is a right hand of falsehood.

12 Let our sons in their youth be as ^agrown-up plants,And our daughters as ^bcorner pillars ¹fashioned as for a palace;13 Let our ^agarners be full, furnishing every kind of produce,And our flocks bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our ¹fields;14 Let our ^acattle ¹bearWithout ²^bmishap and without ³^closs,Let there be no ^doutcry in our streets!15 How blessed are the people who are so situated;How ^ablessed are the people whose God is the LORD!
