Psalms 144:4-8 King James Version with Strong's Concordance (STRONG)

4 Man H120 is like H1819 to vanity: H1892 his days H3117 are as a shadow H6738 that passeth away. H5674

5 Bow H5186 thy heavens, H8064 O LORD, H3068 and come down: H3381 touch H5060 the mountains, H2022 and they shall smoke. H6225

6 Cast forth H1299 lightning, H1300 and scatter H6327 them: shoot out H7971 thine arrows, H2671 and destroy H2000 them.

7 Send H7971 thine hand H3027 from above; H4791 rid H6475 me, and deliver H5337 me out of great H7227 waters, H4325 from the hand H3027 of strange H5236 children; H1121

8 Whose mouth H6310 speaketh H1696 vanity, H7723 and their right hand H3225 is a right hand H3225 of falsehood. H8267

Commentary on Psalms 144 Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible


PSALM 144

Ps 144:1-15. David's praise of God as his all-sufficient help is enhanced by a recognition of the intrinsic worthlessness of man. Confidently imploring God's interposition against his enemies, he breaks forth into praise and joyful anticipations of the prosperity of his kingdom, when freed from vain and wicked men.
