Psalms 144:8 Context
6Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoote out thine arrowes, and destroy them. 7Send thine hand from aboue, rid me, and deliuer me out of great waters: from the hand of strange children, 8Whose mouth speaketh vanitie: and their right hand is a right hand of falshood. 9I will sing a new song vnto thee, O God: vpon a psalterie, and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises vnto thee. 10It is he that giueth saluation vnto kings: who deliuereth Dauid his seruant from the hurtfull sword.
