Psalms 144:4 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 144:4

2 My lovingkindness and my fortress,
My high tower and my deliverer,
My shield and the One in whom I take refuge,
Who subdues¹ my people under me.

3 ^aLord, what is man, that You take knowledge of him?
Or the son of man, that You are mindful of him?

4 ^aMan is like a breath;
^bHis days are like a passing shadow.

5 ^aBow down Your heavens, O Lord, and come down;
^bTouch the mountains, and they shall smoke.

6 ^aFlash forth lightning and scatter them;
Shoot out Your arrows and destroy them.

7 Stretch out Your hand from above;
Rescue me and deliver me out of great waters,
From the hand of foreigners,

8 Whose mouth ^aspeaks lying words,
And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

9 I will ^asing a new song to You, O God;
On a harp of ten strings I will sing praises to You,

10 The One who gives¹ salvation to kings,
^aWho delivers David His servant
From the deadly sword.
