11
He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him
were
dark waters
and
thick clouds of the skies.
12
At the brightness
that was
before him his thick clouds passed, hail
stones
and coals of
fire.
13
The L
ORD
also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail
stones
and
coals of fire.
14
Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot out lightnings, and discomfited
them.
15
Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered
at thy rebuke, O L
ORD
, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
16
He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.
17
He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were
too strong for me.
18
They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the L
ORD
was my stay.
19
He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
20
The L
ORD
rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my
hands hath he recompensed me.
21
For I have kept the ways of the L
ORD
, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22
For all his judgments
were
before me, and I did not put away his statutes from me.
23
I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.
24
Therefore hath the L
ORD
recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to
the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
25
With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful; with an upright man thou wilt shew
thyself upright;
26
With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself
froward.
27
For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.
28
For thou wilt light my candle: the L
ORD
my God will enlighten my darkness.
29
For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped over a wall.
30
As for
God, his way
is
perfect: the word of the L
ORD
is tried: he
is
a buckler to all those
that trust in him.
31
For who
is
God save the L
ORD
? or who
is
a rock save our God?
32
It is
God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.
33
He maketh my feet like hinds’
feet,
and setteth me upon my high places.
34
He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.
35
Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me
up, and thy gentleness hath made me great.
36
Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.
