Psalms 144:7-14
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 144
7Reach out with Your hand from on high; Rescue me and save me from great waters, From the hand of foreigners 8Whose mouths speak deceit, And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood. 9God, I will sing a new song to You; On a harp of ten strings I will sing praises to You, 10Who gives salvation to kings, Who rescues His servant David from the evil sword. 11Rescue me and save me from the hand of foreigners, Whose mouth speaks deceit And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood. 12When our sons in their youth are like growing plants, And our daughters like corner pillars fashioned for a palace, 13Our granaries are full, providing every kind of produce, And our flocks deliver thousands and ten thousands in our fields; 14 May our cattle be bred Without mishap and without loss, May there be no outcry in our streets!King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 144
7Reach down from on high; rescue me from deep water, and set me free from the grasp of foreigners
8whose mouths speak lies, whose right hands are deceptive.
9God, I will sing a new song to you; I will play on a ten-stringed harp for you —
10the one who gives victory to kings, who frees his servant David from the deadly sword.
11Set me free and rescue me from foreigners whose mouths speak lies, whose right hands are deceptive.
12Then our sons will be like plants nurtured in their youth, our daughters, like corner pillars that are carved in the palace style.
13Our storehouses will be full, supplying all kinds of produce; our flocks will increase by thousands and tens of thousands in our open fields.
14Our cattle will be well fed. There will be no breach in the walls, no going into captivity, and no cry of lament in our public squares.
New Living Translation
Chapter 144
7Reach down from heaven and rescue me; rescue me from deep waters, from the power of my enemies. 8Their mouths are full of lies; they swear to tell the truth, but they lie instead.
9I will sing a new song to you, O God! I will sing your praises with a ten-stringed harp.
10For you grant victory to kings! You rescued your servant David from the fatal sword.
11Save me! Rescue me from the power of my enemies. Their mouths are full of lies; they swear to tell the truth, but they lie instead.
12May our sons flourish in their youth like well-nurtured plants. May our daughters be like graceful pillars, carved to beautify a palace.
13May our barns be filled with crops of every kind. May the flocks in our fields multiply by the thousands, even tens of thousands,
14and may our oxen be loaded down with produce. May there be no enemy breaking through our walls, no going into captivity, no cries of alarm in our town squares.
English Standard Version
Chapter 144
7 Stretch out your hand from on high; rescue me and deliver me from the many waters, from the hand of foreigners, 8whose mouths speak lies and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood. 9I will sing a new song to you, O God; upon a ten-stringed harp I will play to you, 10who gives victory to kings, who rescues David his servant from the cruel sword. 11Rescue me and deliver me from the hand of foreigners, whose mouths speak lies and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood. 12May our sons in their youth be like plants full grown, our daughters like corner pillars cut for the structure of a palace; 13 may our granaries be full, providing all kinds of produce; may our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields; 14may our cattle be heavy with young, suffering no mishap or failure in bearing; may there be no cry of distress in our streets!New International Version
8whose mouths are full of lies, whose right hands are deceitful.
9I will sing a new song to you, my God; on the ten-stringed lyre I will make music to you,
11deliver me; rescue me from the hands of foreigners whose mouths are full of lies, whose right hands are deceitful.
12Then our sons in their youth will be like well-nurtured plants, and our daughters will be like pillars carved to adorn a palace.
13Our barns will be filled with every kind of provision. Our sheep will increase by thousands, by tens of thousands in our fields;
14our oxen will draw heavy loads. There will be no breaching of walls, no going into captivity, no cry of distress in our streets.
