| 1 | Blessed be the Lord my strength, which teacheth my hands to warre, and my fingers to fight. |
| 2 | My goodnes and my fortresse, my high tower and my deliuerer, my shield, and he in whome I trust: who subdueth my people vnder me. |
| 3 | Lord, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him? or the sonne of man, that thou makest account of him? |
| 4 | Man is like to vanity: his dayes are as a shadow that passeth away. |
| 5 | Bow thy heauens, O Lord, and come downe: touch the mountaines, and they shall smoke. |
| 6 | Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoote out thine arrowes, and destroy them. |
| 7 | Send thine hand from aboue, rid me, and deliuer me out of great waters: from the hand of strange children, |
| 8 | Whose mouth speaketh vanitie: and their right hand is a right hand of falshood. |
| 9 | I will sing a new song vnto thee, O God: vpon a psalterie, and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises vnto thee. |
| 10 | It is he that giueth saluation vnto kings: who deliuereth Dauid his seruant from the hurtfull sword. |
| 11 | Rid me, and deliuer me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanitie: and their right hand is a right hand of falshood. |
| 12 | That our sonnes may be as plants growen vp in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace: |
| 13 | That our garners may bee full, affoording all maner of store; that our sheepe may bring forth thousands, and tenne thousands in our streetes. |
| 14 | That our oxen may be strong to labour, that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streetes. |
| 15 | Happy is that people that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the Lord. |
