Psalms 18:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 To the director: A song of David, the Lord's servant. He sang this song to the Lord when the Lord saved him from Saul and all his other enemies. I love you, Lord! You are my strength.
2 The Lord is my Rock, my fortress, my place of safety. He is my God, the Rock I run to for protection. He is my shield; by his power I am saved. He is my hiding place high in the hills.
3 I called to the Lord for help, and he saved me from my enemies! He is worthy of my praise!
4 Death had its ropes wrapped around me. A deadly flood was carrying me away.
5 The ropes of the grave wrapped around me. Death set its trap right there in front of me.
6 In my trouble I called to the Lord. Yes, I cried out to my God for help. There in his temple he heard my voice. He heard my cry for help.
7 The earth shook and shivered. The foundations of the mountains trembled. They shook because the Lord was angry.
8 Smoke came from his nose. Burning flames came from his mouth. Red-hot coals fell from him.
9 He tore open the sky and came down! He stood on a thick, dark cloud.
10 He flew across the sky, riding on a Cherub angel, racing on the wings of the wind.
11 He wrapped himself in darkness that covered him like a tent. He was hidden by dark clouds heavy with water.
12 Out of the brightness before him, hail broke through the clouds with flashes of lightning.
13 The Lord thundered from the sky; God Most High let his voice be heard.
14 He scattered the enemy with his arrows� the lightning bolts that threw them into confusion.
15 Lord, you shouted your command, and a powerful wind began to blow. Then the bottom of the sea could be seen, and the earth's foundations were uncovered.
16 The Lord reached down from above and grabbed me. He pulled me from the deep water.
17 He saved me from my powerful enemies, who hated me. They were too strong for me, so he saved me.
18 They attacked me in my time of trouble, but the Lord was there to support me.
19 He was pleased with me, so he rescued me. He took me to a safe place.
20 The Lord rewarded me for doing what is right. He was good to me because I am innocent.
21 The Lord did this because I have obeyed him. I have not turned against my God.
22 I always remembered his laws. I never rejected his rules.
23 He knows I did nothing that was wrong. I have kept myself from sinning.
24 So the Lord rewarded me for doing what is right. He could see that I am innocent.
25 Lord, you are faithful to those who are faithful. You are good to those who are good.
26 You never do wrong to those who have done no wrong. But you outsmart the wicked, no matter how clever they are.
27 You help those who are humble, but you humiliate the proud.
28 Lord, you provide the flame for my lamp. You, God, turn the darkness around me into light.
29 With your help I can defeat an army. If my God is with me, I can climb over enemy walls.
30 God's way is perfect. The Lord's promise always proves to be true. He protects those who trust in him.
31 There is no God except the Lord. There is no Rock except our God.
32 God is the one who gives me strength. He clears the path I need to take.
33 He makes my feet as steady as those of a deer. Even on steep mountains he keeps me from falling.
34 He trains me for war so that my arms can bend the most powerful bow.
35 Lord, you have given me your shield to protect me. You support me with your right hand. It is your help that has made me great.
36 You cleared a path for my feet so that I could walk without stumbling.
37 I chased my enemies and caught them. I did not stop until they were destroyed.
38 I struck them down, and they could not get up again. They fell under my feet.
39 God, you made me strong in battle. You made my enemies fall before me.
40 You made my enemies turn and run away. I destroyed those who hated me.
41 They cried out for help, but there was no one to save them. They cried out to the Lord, but he did not answer them.
42 I beat them to pieces like dust blown by the wind. I smashed them like mud in the streets.
43 You saved me from those who fought against me. You made me the ruler over nations. People I never knew now serve me.
44 As soon as they heard about me, they were ready to obey. Those foreigners fall helpless before me!
45 They lose all their courage and come out of their hiding places shaking with fear.
46 The Lord lives! I praise my Rock, the God who saves me. How great he is!
47 He is the God who punishes my enemies for me, the one who puts people under my control.
48 He saves me from my enemies! You, Lord, help me defeat those who attack me. You save me from cruel people.
49 Lord, that is why I praise you among the nations. That is why I sing songs of praise to your name.
50 The Lord helps his king win battle after battle. He shows his faithful love to the one he has chosen, to David and his descendants forever.
1 To the chief Musician, H5329 A Psalm of David, H1732 the servant H5650 of the LORD, H3068 who H834 spoke H1696 unto the LORD H3068 H853 the words H1697 of this H2063 song H7892 in the day H3117 that the LORD H3068 delivered H5337 him from the hand H4480 H3709 of all H3605 his enemies, H341 and from the hand H4480 H3027 of Saul: H7586 And he said, H559 I will love H7355 thee , O LORD, H3068 my strength. H2391
2 The LORD H3068 is my rock, H5553 and my fortress, H4686 and my deliverer; H6403 my God, H410 my strength, H6697 in whom I will trust; H2620 my buckler, H4043 and the horn H7161 of my salvation, H3468 and my high tower. H4869
3 I will call H7121 upon the LORD, H3068 who is worthy to be praised: H1984 so shall I be saved H3467 from H4480 mine enemies. H341
4 The sorrows H2256 of death H4194 compassed H661 me , and the floods H5158 of ungodly men H1100 made me afraid. H1204
5 The sorrows H2256 of hell H7585 compassed me about: H5437 the snares H4170 of death H4194 prevented H6923 me.
6 In my distress H6862 I called upon H7121 the LORD, H3068 and cried H7768 unto H413 my God: H430 he heard H8085 my voice H6963 out of his temple H4480 H1964 , and my cry H7775 came H935 before H6440 him, even into his ears. H241
7 Then the earth H776 shook H1607 and trembled; H7493 the foundations H4146 also of the hills H2022 moved H7264 and were shaken, H1607 because H3588 he was wroth. H2734
8 There went up H5927 a smoke H6227 out of his nostrils, H639 and fire H784 out of his mouth H4480 H6310 devoured: H398 coals H1513 were kindled H1197 by H4480 it.
9 He bowed H5186 the heavens H8064 also , and came down: H3381 and darkness H6205 was under H8478 his feet. H7272
10 And he rode H7392 upon H5921 a cherub, H3742 and did fly: H5774 yea , he did fly H1675 upon H5921 the wings H3671 of the wind. H7307
11 He made H7896 darkness H2824 his secret place; H5643 his pavilion H5521 round about H5439 him were dark H2824 waters H4325 and thick clouds H5645 of the skies. H7834
12 At the brightness H4480 H5051 that was before H5048 him his thick clouds H5645 passed, H5674 hail H1259 stones and coals H1513 of fire. H784
13 The LORD H3068 also thundered H7481 in the heavens, H8064 and the Highest H5945 gave H5414 his voice; H6963 hail H1259 stones and coals H1513 of fire. H784
14 Yea , he sent out H7971 his arrows, H2671 and scattered H6327 them ; and he shot out H7232 lightnings, H1300 and discomfited H2000 them.
15 Then the channels H650 of waters H4325 were seen, H7200 and the foundations H4146 of the world H8398 were discovered H1540 at thy rebuke H4480 H1606 , O LORD, H3068 at the blast H4480 H5397 of the breath H7307 of thy nostrils. H639
16 He sent H7971 from above H4480 , H4791 he took H3947 me , he drew H4871 me out of many waters H4480 H4325. H7227
17 He delivered H5337 me from my strong H5794 enemy H4480 H341 , and from them which hated H4480 H8130 me: for H3588 they were too strong H553 for H4480 me.
18 They prevented H6923 me in the day H3117 of my calamity: H343 but the LORD H3068 was H1961 my stay. H4937
19 He brought me forth H3318 also into a large place; H4800 he delivered H2502 me, because H3588 he delighted H2654 in me.
20 The LORD H3068 rewarded H1580 me according to my righteousness; H6664 according to the cleanness H1252 of my hands H3027 hath he recompensed H7725 me.
21 For H3588 I have kept H8104 the ways H1870 of the LORD, H3068 and have not H3808 wickedly departed H7561 from my God H4480 H430 .
22 For H3588 all H3605 his judgments H4941 were before H5048 me , and I did not H3808 put away H5493 his statutes H2708 from H4480 me.
23 I was H1961 also upright H8549 before H5973 him , and I kept myself H8104 from mine iniquity H4480 H5771 .
24 Therefore hath the LORD H3068 recompensed H7725 me according to my righteousness, H6664 according to the cleanness H1252 of my hands H3027 in H5048 his eyesight. H5869
25 With H5973 the merciful H2623 thou wilt show thyself merciful; H2616 with H5973 an upright H8549 man H1399 thou wilt show thyself upright; H8552
26 With H5973 the pure H1305 thou wilt show thyself pure; H1305 and with H5973 the froward H6141 thou wilt show thyself froward. H6617
27 For H3588 thou wilt H859 save H3467 the afflicted H6041 people; H5971 but wilt bring down H8213 high H7311 looks. H5869
28 For H3588 thou H859 wilt light H215 my candle: H5216 the LORD H3068 my God H430 will enlighten H5050 my darkness. H2822
29 For H3588 by thee I have run through H7323 a troop; H1416 and by my God H430 have I leaped over H1801 a wall. H7791
30 As for God, H410 his way H1870 is perfect: H8549 the word H565 of the LORD H3068 is tried: H6884 he H1931 is a buckler H4043 to all H3605 those that trust H2620 in him.
31 For H3588 who H4310 is God H433 save H4480 H1107 the LORD H3068 ? or who H4310 is a rock H6697 save H2108 our God H430 ?
32 It is God H410 that girdeth H247 me with strength, H2428 and maketh H5414 my way H1870 perfect. H8549
33 He maketh H7737 my feet H7272 like hinds' H355 feet , and setteth H5975 me upon H5921 my high places. H1116
34 He teacheth H3925 my hands H3027 to war, H4421 so that a bow H7198 of steel H5154 is broken H5181 by mine arms. H2220
35 Thou hast also given H5414 me the shield H4043 of thy salvation: H3468 and thy right hand H3225 hath holden me up, H5582 and thy gentleness H6038 hath made me great. H7235
36 Thou hast enlarged H7337 my steps H6806 under H8478 me , that my feet H7166 did not H3808 slip. H4571
37 I have pursued H7291 mine enemies, H341 and overtaken H5381 them: neither H3808 did I turn again H7725 till H5704 they were consumed. H3615
38 I have wounded H4272 them that they were not H3808 able H3201 to rise: H6965 they are fallen H5307 under H8478 my feet. H7272
39 For thou hast girded H247 me with strength H2428 unto the battle: H4421 thou hast subdued H3766 under H8478 me those that rose up H6965 against me.
40 Thou hast also given H5414 me the necks H6203 of mine enemies; H341 that I might destroy H6789 them that hate H8130 me.
41 They cried, H7768 but there was none H369 to save H3467 them: even unto H5921 the LORD, H3068 but he answered H6030 them not. H3808
42 Then did I beat them small H7833 as the dust H6083 before H5921 H6440 the wind: H7307 I did cast them out H7324 as the dirt H2916 in the streets. H2351
43 Thou hast delivered H6403 me from the strivings H4480 H7379 of the people; H5971 and thou hast made H7760 me the head H7218 of the heathen: H1471 a people H5971 whom I have not H3808 known H3045 shall serve H5647 me.
44 As soon as they hear H8088 H241 of me , they shall obey H8085 me : the strangers H1121 H5236 shall submit H3584 themselves unto me.
45 The strangers H1121 H5236 shall fade away, H5034 and be afraid H2727 out of H4480 their close places. H4526
46 The LORD H3068 liveth; H2416 and blessed H1288 be my rock; H6697 and let the God H430 of my salvation H3468 be exalted. H7311
47 It is God H410 that avengeth H5414 H5360 me , and subdueth H1696 the people H5971 under H8478 me.
48 He delivereth H6403 me from mine enemies H4480 H341 : yea, H637 thou liftest me up H7311 above H4480 those that rise up H6965 against me : thou hast delivered H5337 me from the violent H2555 man H4480 H376 .
49 Therefore H5921 H3651 will I give thanks H3034 unto thee , O LORD, H3068 among the heathen, H1471 and sing praises H2167 unto thy name. H8034
50 Great H1431 deliverance H3444 giveth he to his king; H4428 and showeth H6213 mercy H2617 to his anointed, H4899 to David, H1732 and to his seed H2233 forevermore H5704 H5769 .
