《Chapter # 18》歌词

[00:00:00] Psalms 18 - David And The High Spirit

[00:00:00] Chapter 18

[00:00:17] I love thee O Lord my strength

[00:00:20] The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer

[00:00:24] My God my rock in whom I take refuge

[00:00:27] My shield and the horn of my salvation my strong hold

[00:00:33] I call upon the Lord who is worthy to be praised

[00:00:36] And I am saved from my enemies

[00:00:39] The cords of death encompassed me

[00:00:42] The torrents of perdition assailed me

[00:00:45] The cords of Sheol entangled me

[00:00:48] The snares of death confronted me

[00:00:51] In my distress I called upon the Lord

[00:00:54] To my God I cried for help

[00:00:57] From his temple he heard my voice

[00:01:00] And my cry to him reached his ears

[00:01:03] Then the earth reeled and rocked

[00:01:06] The foundations also of the mountains trembled

[00:01:09] And quaked because he was angry

[00:01:13] Smoke went up from his nostrils

[00:01:15] And devouring fire from his mouth

[00:01:18] Glowing coals flamed forth from him

[00:01:20] He bowed the heavens and came down

[00:01:24] Thick darkness was under his feet

[00:01:27] He rode on a cherub and flew

[00:01:29] He came swiftly upon the wings of the wind

[00:01:32] He made darkness his covering around him

[00:01:35] His canopy thick clouds dark with water

[00:01:39] Out of the brightness before him

[00:01:41] There broke through his clouds

[00:01:43] Hailstones and coals of fire

[00:01:46] The Lord also thundered in the heavens

[00:01:49] And the Most High uttered his voice

[00:01:52] Hailstones and coals of fire

[00:01:55] And he sent out his arrows and scattered them

[00:01:58] He flashed forth lightnings and routed them

[00:02:01] Then the channels of the sea were seen

[00:02:04] And the foundations of the world were laid bare

[00:02:07] At thy rebuke O Lord

[00:02:09] At the blast of the breath of thy nostrils

[00:02:13] He reached from on high he took me

[00:02:17] He drew me out of many waters

[00:02:20] He delivered me from my strong enemy

[00:02:23] And from those who hated me

[00:02:25] For they were too mighty for me

[00:02:27] They came upon me in the day of my calamity

[00:02:30] But the Lord was my stay

[00:02:33] He brought me forth into a broad place

[00:02:36] He delivered me because he delighted in me

[00:02:41] The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness

[00:02:45] According to the cleanness of my hands he recompensed me

[00:02:50] For I have kept the ways of the Lord

[00:02:52] And have not wickedly departed from my God

[00:02:55] For all his ordinances were before me

[00:02:58] And his statutes I did not put away from me

[00:03:01] I was blameless before him

[00:03:04] And I kept myself from guilt

[00:03:07] Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness

[00:03:11] According to the cleanness of my hands in his sight

[00:03:15] With the loyal thou dost show thyself loyal

[00:03:19] With the blameless man thou dost show thyself blameless

[00:03:23] With the pure thou dost show thyself pure

[00:03:27] And with the crooked thou dost show thyself perverse

[00:03:31] For thou dost deliver a humble people

[00:03:34] But the haughty eyes thou dost bring down

[00:03:38] Yea thou dost light my lamp

[00:03:41] The Lord my God lightens my darkness

[00:03:43] Yea by thee I can crush a troop

[00:03:48] And by my God I can leap over a wall

[00:03:51] This God his way is perfect

[00:03:54] The promise of the Lord proves true

[00:03:57] He is a refuge for all those who take refuge in him

[00:04:03] For who is God but the Lord

[00:04:05] And who is a rock except our God

[00:04:08] The God who girded me with strength

[00:04:10] And made my way safe

[00:04:12] He made my feet like hinds feet

[00:04:16] And set me secure on the heights

[00:04:18] He trains my hands for war

[00:04:20] So that my arms can bend a bow of bronze

[00:04:24] Thou hast given me the shield of thy salvation

[00:04:27] And thy right hand supported me

[00:04:29] And thy help made me great

[00:04:31] Thou didst give me a wide place for my steps under me

[00:04:36] And my feet did not slip

[00:04:38] I pursued my enemies and overtook them

[00:04:41] And did not turn back till they were consumed

[00:04:45] I thrust them through so that they were not able to rise

[00:04:49] They fell under my feet

[00:04:51] For thou didst gird me with strength for the battle

[00:04:55] Thou didst make my assailants sink under me

[00:04:58] Thou didst make my enemies turn their backs to me

[00:05:02] And those who hated me I destroyed

[00:05:05] They cried for help but there was none to save

[00:05:09] They cried to the Lord but he did not answer them

[00:05:13] I beat them fine as dust before the wind

[00:05:16] I cast them out like the mire of the streets

[00:05:19] Thou didst deliver me from strife with the peoples

[00:05:23] Thou didst make me the head of the nations

[00:05:26] People whom I had not known served me

[00:05:30] As soon as they heard of me they obeyed me

[00:05:34] Foreigners came cringing to me

[00:05:36] Foreigners lost heart

[00:05:38] And came trembling out of their fastnesses

[00:05:41] The Lord lives and blessed be my rock

[00:05:45] And exalted be the God of my salvation

[00:05:48] The God who gave me vengeance

[00:05:50] Do peoples before me

[00:05:52] Who delivered me from my enemies

[00:05:55] Yea thou didst exalt me above my adversaries

[00:05:59] Thou didst deliver me from men of violence

[00:06:02] For this I will extol thee O Lord among the nations

[00:06:08] And sing praises to thy name

[00:06:10] Great triumphs he gives to his king

[00:06:13] And shows steadfast love to his anointed

[00:06:16] To David and his descendants for ever
