  • 2 Sam 22:1-9 : 1 David Sings to the Lord David sang to the LORD the words of this song when the LORD rescued him from the power of all his enemies, including Saul. 2 He said:“The LORD is my high ridge, my stronghold, my deliverer. 3 My God is my rocky summit where I take shelter, my shield, the horn that saves me, my stronghold, my refuge, my savior. You save me from violence! 4 I called to the LORD, who is worthy of praise, and I was delivered from my enemies. 5 The waves of death engulfed me; the currents of chaos overwhelmed me. 6 The ropes of Sheol tightened around me; the snares of death trapped me. 7 In my distress I called to the LORD; I called to my God. From his heavenly temple he heard my voice; he listened to my cry for help. 8 The earth heaved and shook; the foundations of the sky trembled. They heaved because he was angry. 9 Smoke ascended from his nose; fire devoured as it came from his mouth; he hurled down fiery coals. 10 He made the sky sink as he descended; a thick cloud was under his feet. 11 He mounted a winged angel and flew; he glided on the wings of the wind. 12 He shrouded himself in darkness, in thick rain clouds. 13 From the brightness in front of him came coals of fire. 14 The LORD thundered from the sky; the Most High shouted loudly. 15 He shot arrows and scattered them, lightning and routed them. 16 The depths of the sea were exposed; the inner regions of the world were uncovered by the LORD’s battle cry, by the powerful breath from his nose. 17 He reached down from above and grabbed me; he pulled me from the surging water. 18 He rescued me from my strong enemy, from those who hate me, for they were too strong for me. 19 They confronted me in my day of calamity, but the LORD helped me. 20 He brought me out into a wide open place; he delivered me because he was pleased with me. 21 The LORD repaid me for my godly deeds; he rewarded my blameless behavior. 22 For I have obeyed the LORD’s commands; I have not rebelled against my God. 23 For I am aware of all his regulations, and I do not reject his rules. 24 I was blameless before him; I kept myself from sinning. 25 The LORD rewarded me for my godly deeds; he took notice of my blameless behavior. 26 You prove to be loyal to one who is faithful; you prove to be trustworthy to one who is innocent. 27 You prove to be reliable to one who is blameless, but you prove to be deceptive to one who is perverse. 28 You deliver oppressed people, but you watch the proud and bring them down. 29 Indeed, you are my lamp, LORD. The LORD illumines the darkness around me. 30 Indeed, with your help I can charge against an army; by my God’s power I can jump over a wall. 31 The one true God acts in a faithful manner; the LORD’s promise is reliable; he is a shield to all who take shelter in him. 32 Indeed, who is God besides the LORD? Who is a protector besides our God? 33 The one true God is my mighty refuge; he removes the obstacles in my way. 34 He gives me the agility of a deer; he enables me to negotiate the rugged terrain. 35 He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend even the strongest bow. 36 You give me your protective shield; your willingness to help enables me to prevail. 37 You widen my path; my feet do not slip. 38 I chase my enemies and destroy them; I do not turn back until I wipe them out. 39 I wipe them out and beat them to death; they cannot get up; they fall at my feet. 40 You give me strength for battle; you make my foes kneel before me. 41 You make my enemies retreat; I destroy those who hate me. 42 They cry out, but there is no one to help them; they cry out to the LORD, but he does not answer them. 43 I grind them as fine as the dust of the ground; I crush them and stomp on them like clay in the streets. 44 You rescue me from a hostile army; you preserve me as a leader of nations; people over whom I had no authority are now my subjects. 45 Foreigners are powerless before me; when they hear of my exploits, they submit to me. 46 Foreigners lose their courage; they shake with fear as they leave their strongholds. 47 The LORD is alive! My protector is praiseworthy! The God who delivers me is exalted as king! 48 The one true God completely vindicates me; he makes nations submit to me. 49 He delivers me from my enemies; you snatch me away from those who attack me; you rescue me from violent men. 50 So I will give you thanks, O LORD, before the nations! I will sing praises to you. 51 He gives his king magnificent victories; he is faithful to his chosen ruler, to David and to his descendants forever!”
  • 1 Chr 16:4-9 : 4 He appointed some of the Levites to serve before the ark of the LORD, to offer prayers, songs of thanks, and hymns to the LORD God of Israel. 5 Asaph was the leader and Zechariah second in command, followed by Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-Edom, and Jeiel. They were to play stringed instruments; Asaph was to sound the cymbals; 6 and the priests Benaiah and Jahaziel were to blow trumpets regularly before the ark of God’s covenant. 7 David Thanks God That day David first gave to Asaph and his colleagues this song of thanks to the LORD. 8 Give thanks to the LORD! Call on his name! Make known his accomplishments among the nations! 9 Sing to him! Make music to him! Tell about all his miraculous deeds! 10 Boast about his holy name! Let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice! 11 Seek the LORD and the strength he gives! Seek his presence continually! 12 Recall the miraculous deeds he performed, his mighty acts and the judgments he decreed, 13 O children of Israel, God’s servant, you descendants of Jacob, God’s chosen ones! 14 He is the LORD our God; he carries out judgment throughout the earth. 15 Remember continually his covenantal decree, the promise he made to a thousand generations– 16 the promise he made to Abraham, the promise he made by oath to Isaac! 17 He gave it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as a lasting promise, 18 saying,“To you I will give the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.” 19 When they were few in number, just a very few, and foreign residents within it, 20 they wandered from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another. 21 He let no one oppress them, he disciplined kings for their sake, 22 saying,“Don’t touch my anointed ones! Don’t harm my prophets!” 23 Sing to the LORD, all the earth! Announce every day how he delivers! 24 Tell the nations about his splendor, tell all the nations about his miraculous deeds! 25 For the LORD is great and certainly worthy of praise, he is more awesome than all gods. 26 For all the gods of the nations are worthless, but the LORD made the heavens. 27 Majestic splendor emanates from him, he is the source of strength and joy. 28 Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations, ascribe to the LORD splendor and strength! 29 Ascribe to the LORD the splendor he deserves! Bring an offering and enter his presence! Worship the LORD in holy attire! 30 Tremble before him, all the earth! The world is established, it cannot be moved. 31 Let the heavens rejoice, and the earth be happy! Let the nations say,‘The LORD reigns!’ 32 Let the sea and everything in it shout! Let the fields and everything in them celebrate! 33 Then let the trees of the forest shout with joy before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth! 34 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good and his loyal love endures. 35 Say this prayer:“Deliver us, O God who delivers us! Gather us! Rescue us from the nations! Then we will give thanks to your holy name, and boast about your praiseworthy deeds.” 36 May the LORD God of Israel be praised, in the future and forevermore. Then all the people said,“We agree! Praise the LORD.
