Psalms 144:6

4 Man is like a breath; his days are like a passing shadow.

5 Part Your heavens, O LORD, and come down; touch the mountains, that they may smoke.

Flash forth Your lightning and scatter them; shoot Your arrows and rout them.

7 Reach down from on high; set me free and rescue me from the deep waters, from the grasp of foreigners,

8 whose mouths speak falsehood, whose right hands are deceitful.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
