5. Open the heavens, lord, and come down.Touch the mountains so they billow smoke.
6. Hurl your lightning bolts and scatter your enemies!Shoot your arrows and confuse them!
7. Reach down from heaven and rescue me;rescue me from deep waters,from the power of my enemies.
8. Their mouths are full of lies;they swear to tell the truth, but they lie instead.
9. I will sing a new song to you, O God!I will sing your praises with a ten-stringed harp.
10. For you grant victory to kings!You rescued your servant David from the fatal sword.
11. Save me!Rescue me from the power of my enemies.Their mouths are full of lies;they swear to tell the truth, but they lie instead.
12. May our sons flourish in their youthlike well-nurtured plants.May our daughters be like graceful pillars,carved to beautify a palace.
