| 1 | A Psalm of David versus Goliath. Blessed is the Lord, my God, who trains my hands for the battle and my fingers for the war. |
| 2 | My mercy and my refuge, my supporter and my deliverer, my protector and him in whom I have hoped: he subdues my people under me. |
| 3 | O Lord, what is man that you have become known to him? Or the son of man that you consider him? |
| 4 | Man has been made similar to vanity. His days pass by like a shadow. |
| 5 | O Lord, incline your heavens and descend. Touch the mountains, and they will smoke. |
| 6 | Send a flash of lightning, and you will scatter them. Shoot your arrows, and you will set them in disarray. |
| 7 | Send forth your hand from on high: rescue me, and free me from many waters, from the hand of the sons of foreigners. |
| 8 | Their mouth has been speaking vain things, and their right hand is the right hand of iniquity. |
| 9 | To you, O God, I will sing a new song. On the psaltery, with an instrument of ten strings, I will sing psalms to you. |
| 10 | He gives salvation to kings. He has redeemed your servant David from the malignant sword. |
| 11 | Rescue me, and deliver me from the hand of the sons of foreigners. Their mouth has been speaking vain things, and their right hand is the right hand of iniquity. |
| 12 | Their sons are like new plantings in their youth. Their daughters are dressed up: adorned all around like the idols of a temple. |
| 13 | Their cupboards are full: overflowing from one thing into another. Their sheep bear young, brought forth in abundance. |
| 14 | Their cattle are fat. There is no ruined wall or passage, nor anyone crying out in their streets. |
| 15 | They have called the people that has these things: blessed. But blessed is the people whose God is the Lord. |
