Psalm 18:1-6 NIRV

Psalm 18:1-6

Psalm 18

For the director of music. A psalm of David, the servant of the Lord. He sang the words of this song to the Lord. He sang them when the Lord saved him. He saved him from the power of all his enemies and of Saul. David said,

I love you, Lord.

You give me strength.

The Lord is my rock and my place of safety. He is the God who saves me.

My God is my rock. I go to him for safety.

He is like a shield to me. He’s the power that saves me. He’s my place of safety.

I called out to the Lord. He is worthy of praise.

He saved me from my enemies.

The ropes of death were almost wrapped around me.

A destroying flood swept over me.

The ropes of the grave were tight around me.

Death set its trap in front of me.

When I was in trouble, I called out to the Lord.

I cried to my God for help.

From his temple he heard my voice.

My cry for help reached his ears.
