Shmuel Bais 22:28-40 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

28. And the Am oni (afflicted people) Thou wilt save; but Thine eyes are upon the haughty, that Thou mayest bring them down.

29. For Thou art my ner (lamp), Hashem; and Hashem will lighten my choshech.

30. For by Thee I have run through a troop; by Elohai can I leap over a wall.

31. As for G-d, His derech is tamim; the Word of Hashem is proven; He is a mogen (shield) to all them that trust in Him.

32. For who is G-d, save Hashem? And who is Tzur, save Eloheinu?

33. G-d is my ma'oz and power; and He maketh my derech perfect.

34. He maketh my feet like the feet of ayyalot (deer); and maketh me stand upon my high places.

35. He teacheth my yadayim for milchamah; so that a keshet nechoshah is bent by mine arms.

36. Thou hast also given me the mogen of Thy Salvation; and hath stooped down to make me great.

37. Thou hast enlarged my stride under me; so that my karsulayim do not slip.

38. I have pursued mine oyevim, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them.

39. And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise; indeed, they are fallen under my raglayim.

40. For Thou hast girded me with chayil (strength) for milchamah (battle); them that rose up against me hast Thou caused to bow down under me.
