2 Samuel 22:1 And David spake unto the Lord the words of this song in the day that the Lord had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul: MC VC

2 Samuel 22:2 And he said, The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; 8 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:3 The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence. 6 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:4 I will call on the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies. 2 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:5 When the waves of death compassed me, the floods of ungodly men made me afraid; MC VC

2 Samuel 22:6 The sorrows of hell compassed me about; the snares of death prevented me; MC VC

2 Samuel 22:7 In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:8 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was wroth. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:9 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:11 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind. 2 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:12 And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies. 2 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:13 Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled. 2 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:14 The Lord thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his voice. 2 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:15 And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them. 2 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:16 And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of the Lord, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils. 2 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:17 He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters; MC VC

2 Samuel 22:18 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:19 They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the Lord was my stay. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:20 He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:21 The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:23 For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:24 I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:25 Therefore the Lord hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:26 With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:27 With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:28 And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down. 6 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:29 For thou art my lamp, O Lord: and the Lord will lighten my darkness. 11 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:30 For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:31 As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him. 2 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:32 For who is God, save the Lord? and who is a rock, save our God? 6 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:33 God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect. 5 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:34 He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet: and setteth me upon my high places. 2 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:35 He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms. 2 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:36 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great. 7 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:37 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not slip. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:38 I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:39 And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they are fallen under my feet. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:40 For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against me hast thou subdued under me. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:41 Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:42 They looked, but there was none to save; even unto the Lord, but he answered them not. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:43 Then did I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as the mire of the street, and did spread them abroad. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:44 Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, thou hast kept me to be head of the heathen: a people which I knew not shall serve me. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:45 Strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient unto me. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:46 Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:47 The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation. 4 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:48 It is God that avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:49 And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: thou also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man. MC VC

2 Samuel 22:50 Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the heathen, and I will sing praises unto thy name. 12 I MC VC

2 Samuel 22:51 He is the tower of salvation for his king: and sheweth mercy to his anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore. 2 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:1 So they brought the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it: and they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings before God. 2 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:2 And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord. MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:3 And he dealt to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine. MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:4 And he appointed certain of the Levites to minister before the ark of the Lord, and to record, and to thank and praise the Lord God of Israel: 2 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:5 Asaph the chief, and next to him Zechariah, Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obededom: and Jeiel with psalteries and with harps; but Asaph made a sound with cymbals; MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:6 Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God. MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:7 Then on that day David delivered first this psalm to thank the Lord into the hand of Asaph and his brethren. MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:8 Give thanks unto the Lord, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people. 6 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:9 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works. 4 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:10 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord. 9 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:11 Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually. 6 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:12 Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth; MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:13 O ye seed of Israel his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones. 4 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:14 He is the Lord our God; his judgments are in all the earth. 6 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:15 Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations; 6 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:16 Even of the covenant which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac; 6 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:17 And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant, 6 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:18 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance; 2 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:19 When ye were but few, even a few, and strangers in it. MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:20 And when they went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people; MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:21 He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes, MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:22 Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm. MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:23 Sing unto the Lord, all the earth; shew forth from day to day his salvation. 4 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:24 Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations. MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:25 For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods. 6 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:26 For all the gods of the people are idols: but the Lord made the heavens. 4 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:27 Glory and honour are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place. MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:28 Give unto the Lord, ye kindreds of the people, give unto the Lord glory and strength. MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:29 Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness. 7 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:30 Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved. 4 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:31 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let men say among the nations, The Lord reigneth. 4 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:32 Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that is therein. 4 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:33 Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the Lord, because he cometh to judge the earth. 4 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:34 O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever. 14 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:35 And say ye, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to thy holy name, and glory in thy praise. 4 I MC VC

1 Chronicles 16:36 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the Lord. 10 I MC VC
