Book 10 2 Samuel Chapter 022

 

022:001And David spake unto the LORD the words of this song in the
day that the LORD had delivered him out of the hand of all his
enemies, and out of the hand of Saul:

 

022:002And he said, The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my
deliverer;

 

022:003The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and
the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my
saviour; thou savest me from violence.

 

022:004I will call on the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall
I be saved from mine enemies.

 

022:005When the waves of death compassed me, the floods of ungodly
men made me afraid;

 

022:006The sorrows of hell compassed me about; the snares of death
prevented me;

 

022:007In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried to my God:
and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did
enter into his ears.

 

022:008Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven
moved and shook, because he was wroth.

 

022:009There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his
mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.

 

022:010He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was
under his feet.

 

022:011And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon
the wings of the wind.

 

022:012And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters,
and thick clouds of the skies.

 

022:013Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.

 

022:014The LORD thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his
voice.

 

022:015And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and
discomfited them.

 

022:016And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the
world were discovered, at the rebuking of the LORD, at the
blast of the breath of his nostrils.

 

022:017He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;

 

022:018He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them that hated
me: for they were too strong for me.

 

022:019They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was
my stay.

 

022:020He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me,
because he delighted in me.

 

022:021The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness: according
to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.

 

022:022For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly
departed from my God.

 

022:023For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes,
I did not depart from them.

 

022:024I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine
iniquity.

 

022:025Therefore the LORD hath recompensed me according to my
righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.

 

022:026With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with
the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright.

 

022:027With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the
froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury.

 

022:028And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are
upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.

 

022:029For thou art my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my
darkness.

 

022:030For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I
leaped over a wall.

 

022:031As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried:
he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.

 

022:032For who is God, save the LORD? and who is a rock, save our
God?

 

022:033God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.

 

022:034He maketh my feet like hinds' feet: and setteth me upon my
high places.

 

022:035He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken
by mine arms.

 

022:036Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy
gentleness hath made me great.

 

022:037Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not
slip.

 

022:038I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; and turned
not again until I had consumed them.

 

022:039And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could
not arise: yea, they are fallen under my feet.

 

022:040For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: them that
rose up against me hast thou subdued under me.

 

022:041Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies, that I
might destroy them that hate me.

 

022:042They looked, but there was none to save; even unto the LORD,
but he answered them not.

 

022:043Then did I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I did
stamp them as the mire of the street, and did spread them
abroad.

 

022:044Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people,
thou hast kept me to be head of the heathen: a people which I
knew not shall serve me.

 

022:045Strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they
hear, they shall be obedient unto me.

 

022:046Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of
their close places.

 

022:047The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the
God of the rock of my salvation.

 

022:048It is God that avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people
under me.

 

022:049And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: thou also hast
lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: thou
hast delivered me from the violent man.

 

022:050Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the
heathen, and I will sing praises unto thy name.

 

022:051He is the tower of salvation for his king: and sheweth mercy
to his anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore.
