He brings me out from my enemies. Indeed You lift me up above those who rise up against me. You deliver me from the violent man.
Then the Cushite arrived and said, “Let my lord the king receive good news for Adonai has vindicated you today against all who rose up against you.”
David then realized that Adonai had established him as king over Israel, and that He had exalted his kingdom for the sake of His people Israel.
For the music director: a psalm of David.
They sharpen their tongue like a serpent’s —viper’s venom is under their lips. Selah
God—He gives me vengeance and subdues peoples under me.
You are my King, O God— command victories for Jacob!
For the music director: a contemplative song of David,
Water will flow from his buckets, his seed by abundant water. His king will be greater than Agag , his kingdom will be exalted.
He raises the helpless from the dust. He lifts the needy from the dunghill, to make them sit with nobles, granting them a seat of honor. For the earth’s pillars are Adonai’s, and He has set the world on them.
