My mercy and my refuge, my supporter and my deliverer, my protector and him in whom I have hoped: he subdues my people under me.
O Lord, what is man that you have become known to him? Or the son of man that you consider him?
Man has been made similar to vanity. His days pass by like a shadow.
O Lord, incline your heavens and descend. Touch the mountains, and they will smoke.
Send a flash of lightning, and you will scatter them. Shoot your arrows, and you will set them in disarray.
Send forth your hand from on high: rescue me, and free me from many waters, from the hand of the sons of foreigners.
Their mouth has been speaking vain things, and their right hand is the right hand of iniquity.
