Ps 18 - David And The High Spirit[00:00:00]
Chapter 18[00:00:00]
I love thee O Lord my strength[00:00:17]
The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer[00:00:20]
My God my rock in whom I take refuge[00:00:24]
My shield and the horn of my salvation my strong hold[00:00:27]
I call upon the Lord who is worthy to be praised[00:00:33]
And I am saved from my enemies[00:00:36]
The cords of death encompassed me[00:00:39]
The torrents of perdition assailed me[00:00:42]
The cords of Sheol entangled me[00:00:45]
The snares of death confronted me[00:00:48]
In my distress I called upon the Lord[00:00:51]
To my God I cried for help[00:00:54]
From his temple he heard my voice[00:00:57]
And my cry to him reached his ears[00:01:00]
Then the earth reeled and rocked[00:01:03]
The foundations also of the mountains trembled[00:01:06]
And quaked because he was angry[00:01:09]
Smoke went up from his nostrils[00:01:13]
And devouring fire from his mouth[00:01:15]
Glowing coals flamed forth from him[00:01:18]
He bowed the heavens and came down[00:01:20]
Thick darkness was under his feet[00:01:24]
He rode on a cherub and flew[00:01:27]
He came swiftly upon the wings of the wind[00:01:29]
He made darkness his covering around him[00:01:32]
His canopy thick clouds dark with water[00:01:35]
Out of the brightness before him[00:01:39]
There broke through his clouds[00:01:41]
Hailstones and coals of fire[00:01:43]
The Lord also thundered in the heavens[00:01:46]
And the Most High uttered his voice[00:01:49]
Hailstones and coals of fire[00:01:52]
And he sent out his arrows and scattered them[00:01:55]
He flashed forth lightnings and routed them[00:01:58]
Then the channels of the sea were seen[00:02:01]
And the foundations of the world were laid bare[00:02:04]
At thy rebuke O Lord[00:02:07]
At the blast of the breath of thy nostrils[00:02:09]
He reached from on high he took me[00:02:13]
He drew me out of many waters[00:02:17]
He delivered me from my strong enemy[00:02:20]
And from those who hated me[00:02:23]
For they were too mighty for me[00:02:25]
They came upon me in the day of my calamity[00:02:27]
But the Lord was my stay[00:02:30]
He brought me forth into a broad place[00:02:33]
He delivered me because he delighted in me[00:02:36]
The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness[00:02:41]
According to the cleanness of my hands he recompensed me[00:02:45]
For I have kept the ways of the Lord[00:02:50]
And have not wickedly departed from my God[00:02:52]
For all his ordinances were before me[00:02:55]
And his statutes I did not put away from me[00:02:58]
I was blameless before him[00:03:01]
And I kept myself from guilt[00:03:04]
Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness[00:03:07]
According to the cleanness of my hands in his sight[00:03:11]
With the loyal thou dost show thyself loyal[00:03:15]
With the blameless man thou dost show thyself blameless[00:03:19]
With the pure thou dost show thyself pure[00:03:23]
And with the crooked thou dost show thyself perverse[00:03:27]
For thou dost deliver a humble people[00:03:31]
But the haughty eyes thou dost bring down[00:03:34]
Yea thou dost light my lamp[00:03:38]
The Lord my God lightens my darkness[00:03:41]
Yea by thee I can crush a troop[00:03:43]
And by my God I can leap over a wall[00:03:48]
This God his way is perfect[00:03:51]
The promise of the Lord proves true[00:03:54]
He is a refuge for all those who take refuge in him[00:03:57]
For who is God but the Lord[00:04:03]
And who is a rock except our God[00:04:05]
The God who girded me with strength[00:04:08]
And made my way safe[00:04:10]
He made my feet like hinds feet[00:04:12]
And set me secure on the heights[00:04:16]
He trains my hands for war[00:04:18]
So that my arms can bend a bow of bronze[00:04:20]
Thou hast given me the shield of thy salvation[00:04:24]
And thy right hand supported me[00:04:27]
And thy help made me great[00:04:29]
Thou didst give me a wide place for my steps under me[00:04:31]
And my feet did not slip[00:04:36]
I pursued my enemies and overtook them[00:04:38]
And did not turn back till they were consumed[00:04:41]
I thrust them through so that they were not able to rise[00:04:45]
They fell under my feet[00:04:49]
For thou didst gird me with strength for the battle[00:04:51]
Thou didst make my assailants sink under me[00:04:55]
Thou didst make my enemies turn their backs to me[00:04:58]
And those who hated me I destroyed[00:05:02]
They cried for help but there was none to save[00:05:05]
They cried to the Lord but he did not answer them[00:05:09]
I beat them fine as dust before the wind[00:05:13]
I cast them out like the mire of the streets[00:05:16]
Thou didst deliver me from strife with the peoples[00:05:19]
Thou didst make me the head of the nations[00:05:23]
People whom I had not known served me[00:05:26]
As soon as they heard of me they obeyed me[00:05:30]
Foreigners came cringing to me[00:05:34]
Foreigners lost heart[00:05:36]
And came trembling out of their fastnesses[00:05:38]
The Lord lives and blessed be my rock[00:05:41]
And exalted be the God of my salvation[00:05:45]
The God who gave me vengeance[00:05:48]
Do peoples before me[00:05:50]
Who delivered me from my enemies[00:05:52]
Yea thou didst exalt me above my adversaries[00:05:55]
Thou didst deliver me from men of violence[00:05:59]
For this I will extol thee O Lord among the nations[00:06:02]
And sing praises to thy name[00:06:08]
Great triumphs he gives to his king[00:06:10]
And shows steadfast love to his anointed[00:06:13]
To David and his descendants for ever[00:06:16]
