Psalms 144:2


← Psalms 144:1 Psalms 144:2 (KJV) Psalms 144:3 →
A Psalm of David. Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:
My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.
LORD, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account of him!
