    Psalm 144

    A [Psalm] of David. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:1} Blessed [be] the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, [and] my fingers to fight: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:2} My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and [he] in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:3} LORD, what [is] man, that thou takest knowledge of him! [or] the son of man, that thou makest account of him! ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:4} Man is like to vanity: his days [are] as a shadow that passeth away. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:5} Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:6} Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and destroy them. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:7} Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children; ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:8} Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand [is] a right hand of falsehood. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:9} I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery [and] an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:10} [It is he] that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:11} Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand [is] a right hand of falsehood: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:12} That our sons [may be] as plants grown up in their youth; [that] our daughters [may be] as corner stones, polished [after] the similitude of a palace: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:13} [That] our garners [may be] full, affording all manner of store: [that] our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:14} [That] our oxen [may be] strong to labour; [that there be] no breaking in, nor going out; that [there be] no complaining in our streets. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

    {Psalms 144:15} Happy [is that] people, that is in such a case: [yea,] happy [is that] people, whose God [is] the LORD.
