TO THE OVERSEER. BY A SERVANT OF YHWH, BY DAVID, WHO HAS SPOKEN TO YHWH THE WORDS OF THIS SONG IN THE DAY YHWH DELIVERED HIM FROM THE HAND OF ALL HIS ENEMIES, AND FROM THE HAND OF SAUL, AND HE SAYS: I love You, O YHWH, my strength. YHWH [is] my rock, and my bulwark, || And my deliverer, || My God [is] my rock, || I trust in Him: My shield, and the horn of my salvation, || My high tower. Heb 2:13I call on YHWH, the Praised One, || And I am saved from my enemies. Cords of death have surrounded me, || And streams of the worthless make me afraid. Cords of Sheol have surrounded me, || Snares of death have been before me. Job 22:10In my adversity I call YHWH, || And I cry to my God. He hears my voice from His temple, || And My cry comes into His ears before Him. Psa 34:5; Isa 26:16; Jon 2:2; Jon 2:7And the earth shakes and trembles, || And foundations of hills are troubled, || And they shake—because He has wrath. 2Sa 22:8; Jer 10:10Smoke has gone up from His nostrils, || And fire from His mouth consumes, || Coals have been kindled by it. Deu 4:24; Ezk 10:2; Heb 12:29And He inclines the heavens, and comes down, || And thick darkness [is] under His feet. And He rides on a cherub, and flies, || And He flies on wings of wind. He makes darkness His secret place, || Around Him His dwelling place, || Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies. Isa 50:3From the brightness before Him His thick clouds have passed on, || Hail and coals of fire. And YHWH thunders in the heavens, || And the Most High gives forth His voice, || Hail and coals of fire. 1Sa 2:10; 1Sa 7:10; Jer 51:16And He sends His arrows and scatters them, || And much lightning, and crushes them. And the streams of waters are seen, || And foundations of the earth are revealed, || From Your rebuke, O YHWH, || From the breath of the wind of Your anger. He sends from above—He takes me, || He draws me out of many waters. Psa 66:12; Psa 69:1He delivers me from my strong enemy, || And from those hating me, || For they have been stronger than I. They go before me in a day of my calamity || And YHWH is for a support to me. And He brings me forth to a large place, || He draws me out, because He delighted in me. Psa 31:8YHWH repays me || According to my righteousness, || According to the cleanness of my hands, || He returns to me. Job 22:30For I have kept the ways of YHWH, || And have not done wickedly against my God. For all His judgments [are] before me, || And I do not turn His statutes from me. And I am perfect with Him, || And I keep myself from my iniquity. And YHWH returns to me, || According to my righteousness, || According to the cleanness of my hands, || Before His eyes. With the kind You show Yourself kind, || With a perfect man You show Yourself perfect. With the pure You show Yourself pure, || And with the perverse You show Yourself a wrestler, For You save a poor people, || And cause the eyes of the high to fall. 1Sa 2:8; Psa 113:7For You light my lamp, || My God YHWH enlightens my darkness. Isa 42:16For by You I run [against] a troop! And by my God I leap a wall. Psa 60:12God—perfect [is] His way, || The saying of YHWH is tried, || He [is] a shield to all those trusting in Him. Psa 12:6; Psa 19:7; Pro 30:5For who [is] God besides YHWH? And who [is] a rock except our God? 2Sa 22:32; Isa 43:11; Isa 44:6God—who is girding me [with] strength, || And He makes my way perfect. Making my feet like does, || And on my high places causes me to stand. Hab 3:19Teaching my hands for battle, || And a bow of bronze was brought down by my arms. Psa 144:1And You give to me the shield of Your salvation, || And Your right hand supports me, || And Your lowliness makes me great. You enlarge my step under me, || And my ankles have not slipped. Psa 31:8I pursue my enemies, and overtake them, || And do not turn back until they are consumed. I strike them, and they are not able to rise, || They fall under my feet, And You gird me [with] strength for battle, || You cause my withstanders to bow under me. As for my enemies—You have given to me the neck, || As for those hating me—I cut them off. Gen 49:8They cry, and there is no savior, || On YHWH, and He does not answer them. Job 27:9And I beat them as dust before wind, || I empty them out as mire of the streets. 2Ki 13:7; Psa 83:10; Isa 10:6You deliver me || From the strivings of the people, || You place me for a head of nations, || A people I have not known serve me. Rom 15:9At the hearing of the ear they listen to me, || Sons of a stranger feign obedience to me, Sons of a stranger fade away, || And are slain out of their close places. YHWH lives—and blessed [is] my rock, || And exalted is the God of my salvation. Deu 32:40God—who is giving vengeance to me, || And He subdues peoples under me, 1Ch 17:10My deliverer from my enemies, || You raise me above my withstanders, || Deliver me from a man of violence. Therefore I confess You among nations, O YHWH, || And I sing praise to Your Name, Rom 15:9Magnifying the salvation of His king, || And doing kindness to His anointed, || To David, and to his seed—for all time!
