And David spake unto Jehovah the words of this song in the day that Jehovah delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul:
and he said, Jehovah is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer, even mine
God, my rock, in him will I take refuge My shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge My saviour, thou savest me from violence.
I will call upon Jehovah, who is worthy to be praised: So shall I be saved from mine enemies.
For the waves of death compassed me The floods of ungodliness made me afraid:
The cords of Sheol were round about me The snares of death came upon me.
In my distress I called upon Jehovah Yea, I called unto my God: And he heard my voice out of his temple, And my cry [came] into his ears.
Then the earth shook and trembled, The foundations of heaven quaked And were shaken, because he was wroth.
There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, And fire out of his mouth devoured: Coals were kindled by it.
He bowed the heavens also, and came down And thick darkness was under his feet.
And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly Yea, he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
And he made darkness pavilions round about him, Gathering of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
At the brightness before him Coals of fire were kindled.
Jehovah thundered from heaven, And the Most High uttered his voice.
And he sent out arrows, and scattered them Lightning, and discomfited them.
Then the channels of the sea appeared, The foundations of the world were laid bare, By the rebuke of Jehovah, At the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
He sent from on high, he took me He drew me out of many waters
He delivered me from my strong enemy, From them that hated me for they were too mighty for me.
They came upon me in the day of my calamity But Jehovah was my stay.
He brought me forth also into a large place He delivered me, because he delighted in me.
Jehovah rewarded me according to my righteousness According to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
For I have kept the ways of Jehovah, And have not wickedly departed from my God.
For all his ordinances were before me And as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.
I was also perfect toward him And I kept myself from mine iniquity.
Therefore hath Jehovah recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to my cleanness in his eyesight.
With the merciful thou wilt show thyself merciful With the perfect man thou wilt show thyself perfect
With the pure thou wilt show thyself pure And with the perverse thou wilt show thyself froward.
And the afflicted people thou wilt save But thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.
For thou art my lamp, O Jehovah And Jehovah will lighten my darkness.
For by thee I run upon a troop By my God do I leap over a wall.
As for God, his way is perfect: The word of Jehovah is tried He is a shield unto all them that take refuge in him.
For who is God, save Jehovah? And who is a rock, save our God?
God is my strong fortress And he guideth the perfect in his way.
He maketh his feet like hinds' [feet], And setteth me upon my high places.
He teacheth my hands to war, So that mine arms do bend a bow of brass.
Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation And thy gentleness hath made me great.
Thou hast enlarged my steps under me And my feet have not slipped.
I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them Neither did I turn again till they were consumed.
And I have consumed them, and smitten them through, so that they cannot arise: Yea, they are fallen under my feet.
For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle Thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.
Thou hast also made mine enemies turn their backs unto me, That I might cut off them that hate me.
They looked, but there was none to save Even unto Jehovah, but he answered them not.
Then did I beat them small as the dust of the earth, I did crush them as the mire of the streets, and did spread them abroad.
Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people Thou hast kept me to be the head of the nations: A people whom I have not known shall serve me.
The foreigners shall submit themselves unto me: As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me.
The foreigners shall fade away, And shall come trembling out of their close places.
Jehovah liveth And blessed be my rock And exalted be God, the rock of my salvation,
Even the God that executeth vengeance for me, And that bringeth down peoples under me,
And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: Yea, thou liftest me up above them that rise up against me Thou deliverest me from the violent man.
Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O Jehovah, among the nations, And will sing praises unto thy name.
Great deliverance giveth he to his king, And showeth lovingkindness to his anointed, To David and to his seed, for evermore.
Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and [the] Saviour Jesus Christ:
Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord
seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that called us by his own glory and virtue
whereby he hath granted unto us his precious and exceeding great promises that through these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in that world by lust.
Yea, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply virtue and in [your] virtue knowledge
and in [your] knowledge self-control and in [your] self-control patience and in [your] patience godliness
and in [your] godliness brotherly kindness and in [your] brotherly kindness love.
For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful unto the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
For he that lacketh these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
Wherefore, brethren, give the more diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never stumble:
for thus shall be richly supplied unto you the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Wherefore I shall be ready always to put you in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and are established in the truth which is with [you].
And I think it right, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance
knowing that the putting off of my tabernacle cometh swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ signified unto me.
Yea, I will give diligence that at every time ye may be able after my decease to call these things to remembrance.
For we did not follow cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when there was borne such a voice to him by the Majestic Glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased:
and this voice we [ourselves] heard borne out of heaven, when we were with him in the holy mount.
And we have the word of prophecy [made] more sure whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts:
knowing this first, that no prophecy of scripture is of private interpretation.
For no prophecy ever came by the will of man: but men spake from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
