Psalms 144:5-15 King James Version with Strong's Concordance (STRONG)

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

9 I will sing H7891 a new H2319 song H7892 unto thee, O God: H430 upon a psaltery H5035 and an instrument of ten strings H6218 will I sing praises H2167 unto thee.

10 It is he that giveth H5414 salvation H8668 unto kings: H4428 who delivereth H6475 David H1732 his servant H5650 from the hurtful H7451 sword. H2719

11 Rid H6475 me, and deliver H5337 me from the hand H3027 of strange H5236 children, H1121 whose mouth H6310 speaketh H1696 vanity, H7723 and their right hand H3225 is a right hand H3225 of falsehood: H8267

12 That our sons H1121 may be as plants H5195 grown up H1431 in their youth; H5271 that our daughters H1323 may be as corner stones, H2106 polished H2404 after the similitude H8403 of a palace: H1964

13 That our garners H4200 may be full, H4392 affording H6329 all manner of store: H2177 H2177 that our sheep H6629 may bring forth thousands H503 and ten thousands H7231 in our streets: H2351

14 That our oxen H441 may be strong to labour; H5445 that there be no breaking in, H6556 nor going out; H3318 that there be no complaining H6682 in our streets. H7339

15 Happy H835 is that people, H5971 that is in such a case: H3602 yea, happy H835 is that people, H5971 whose God H430 is the LORD. H3068

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.
