144:1  Davidic. May the LORD, my rock, be praised, who trains my hands for battle and my fingers for warfare.
144:2  He is my faithful love and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer. He is my shield, and I take refuge in Him; He subdues my people under me.
144:3   LORD, what is man, that You care for him, the son of man, that You think of him?
144:4  Man is like a breath; his days are like a passing shadow.
144:5   LORD, part Your heavens and come down. Touch the mountains, and they will smoke.
144:6  Flash Your lightning and scatter the foe; shoot Your arrows and rout them.
144:7  Reach down from heaven; rescue me from deep water, and set me free from the grasp of foreigners
144:8  whose mouths speak lies, whose right hands are deceptive.
144:9  God, I will sing a new song to You; I will play on a ten-stringed harp for You--
144:10  the One who gives victory to kings, who frees His servant David from the deadly sword.
144:11  Set me free and rescue me from the grasp of foreigners whose mouths speak lies, whose right hands are deceptive.
144:12  Then our sons will be like plants nurtured in their youth, our daughters, like corner pillars that are carved in the palace style.
144:13  Our storehouses will be full, supplying all kinds of produce; our flocks will increase by thousands and tens of thousands in our open fields.
144:14  Our cattle will be well fed. There will be no breach in the walls, no going into captivity, and no cry of lament in our public squares.
144:15  Happy are the people with such blessings. Happy are the people whose God is Yahweh.
