Psalm 144

¹⁰ to Him who gives victory to kings, who frees His servant David from the deadly sword.

¹¹ Set me free and rescue me from the grasp of foreigners, whose mouths speak falsehood, whose right hands are deceitful.

¹² Then our sons will be like plants nurtured in their youth, our daughters like corner pillars carved to adorn a palace.

¹³ Our storehouses will be full, supplying all manner of produce; our flocks will bring forth thousands, tens of thousands in our fields.

¹⁴ Our oxen will bear great loads. There will be no breach in the walls, no going into captivity, and no cry of lament in our streets.
