The Lord is my Strength and Song
The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my
salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation;
my father's God, and I will exalt him.
Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast
redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy
habitation. God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were
the strength of an unicorn. But he shall acknowledge the son of
the hated for the firstborn, by giving him a double portion of
all that he hath: for he is the beginning of his strength; the
right of the firstborn is his. Thy shoes shall be iron and
brass; and as thy days, so shall thy strength be.
The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled
are girded with strength.
He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be
silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail. The
adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven
shall he thunder upon them: the Lord shall judge the ends of the
earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the
horn of his anointed.
And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he
is not a man, that he should repent. God is my strength and
power: and he maketh my way perfect. For thou hast girded me
with strength to battle: them that rose up against me hast thou
subdued under me.
And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength
of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of
God.
Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.
Glory and honour are in his presence; strength and gladness are
in his place. Give unto the Lord, ye kindreds of the people,
give unto the Lord glory and strength. Both riches and honour
come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is
power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to
give strength unto all.
Now therefore arise, O Lord God, into thy resting place, thou,
and the ark of thy strength: let thy priests, O Lord God, be
clothed with salvation, and let thy saints rejoice in goodness.
He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who hath hardened
himself against him, and hath prospered? If I speak of strength,
lo, he is strong: and if of judgment, who shall set me a time to
plead? With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and
understanding. Will he plead against me with his great power?
No; but he would put strength in me. How hast thou helped him
that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no
strength?
Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in
strength and wisdom. For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the
earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his
strength.
Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? or wilt
thou leave thy labour to him? Hath thou given the horse
strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder? He paweth in
the valley, and rejoiceth in his strength: he goeth on to meet
the armed men.
Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the
navel of his belly. In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow
is turned into joy before him. Out of the mouth of babes and
sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies,
that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God,
my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of
my salvation, and my high tower. It is God that girdeth me with
strength, and maketh my way perfect. Let the words of my mouth,
and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O
Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.
Now know I that the Lord saveth his anointed; he will hear him
from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
Be thou exalted, Lord, in thine own strength: so will we sing
and praise thy power.
The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him,
and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with
my song will I praise him. The Lord is their strength, and he is
the saving strength of his anointed. The Lord will give strength
unto his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.
There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man
is not delivered by much strength. An horse is a vain thing for
safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength. But
the salvation of the righteous is of the Lord: he is their
strength in the time of trouble.
Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence,
and the God of my mercy. Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine;
Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe:
Philistia, triumph thou because of me.
In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength,
and my refuge, is in God. Which by his strength setteth fast the
mountains; being girded with power.
Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that
which thou hast wrought for us.
Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel,
and his strength is in the clouds. O God, thou art terrible out
of thy holy places: the God of Israel is he that giveth strength
and power unto his people. Blessed be God. I will go in the
strength of the Lord God: I will make mention of thy
righteousness, even of thine only.
Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the
heads of the dragons in the waters. Thou art the God that doest
wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people. We
will not hide them from their children, shewing to the
generation to come the praises of the Lord, and his strength,
and his wonderful works that he hath done. Blessed is the man
whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.
They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion
appeareth before God. For thou art the glory of their strength:
and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
The Lord reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the Lord is
clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the
world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved. In his hand
are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is
his also.
Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in
his sanctuary. Give unto the Lord, O ye kindreds of the people,
give unto the Lord glory and strength. The king's strength also
loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest
judgment and righteousness in Jacob.
Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do
his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word. Seek
the Lord, and his strength: seek his face evermore. The Lord
shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the
midst of thine enemies.
The Lord is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.
Arise, O Lord, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.
He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not
pleasure in the legs of a man.
Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have
strength. The way of the Lord is strength to the upright: but
destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity. Where no oxen
are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by the strength of
the ox.
Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid:
for the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; he also is
become my salvation. For thou hast been a strength to the poor,
a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the
storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible
ones is as a storm against the wall.
Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is
everlasting strength: Or let him take hold of my strength, that
he may make peace with me; and he shall make peace with me. And
for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and
for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate. And
wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and
strength of salvation: the fear of the Lord is his treasure.
O Zion, that bringest good tidings, get thee up into the high
mountain; O Jerusalem, that bringest good tidings, lift up thy
voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the
cities of Judah, Behold your God!
He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he
increaseth strength. But they that wait upon the Lord shall
renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles;
they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not
faint.
Keep silence before me, O islands; and let the people renew
their strength: let them come near; then let them speak: let us
come near together to judgment. Surely, shall one say, in the
Lord have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men
come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.
And now, saith the Lord that formed me from the womb to be his
servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not
gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the Lord, and
my God shall be my strength.
Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful
garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall
no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.
The Lord hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his
strength, Surely I will no more give thy corn to be meat for
thine enemies; and the sons of the stranger shall not drink thy
wine, for the which thou hast laboured.
Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from
Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the
greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty
to save.
Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy
holiness and of thy glory: where is thy zeal and thy strength,
the sounding of thy bowels and of thy mercies toward me? are
they restrained?
Be not afraid, ye beasts of the field: for the pastures of the
wilderness do spring, for the tree beareth her fruit, the fig
tree and the vine do yield their strength.
The Lord also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from
Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the
Lord will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the
children of Israel. And he shall stand and feed in the strength
of the Lord, in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God; and
they shall abide: for now shall he be great unto the ends of the
earth.
The Lord God is my strength, and he will make my feet like
hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places.
To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.
And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and
with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy
strength: this is the first commandment. And to love him with
all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the
soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as
himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth
went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun
shineth in his strength.
And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These
things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the
key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and
shutteth, and no man openeth; I know thy works: behold, I have
set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou
hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not
denied my name. Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of
Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold,
I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to
know that I have loved thee. Because thou hast kept the word of
my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation,
which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon
the earth. Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou
hast, that no man take thy crown. Him that overcometh will I
make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more
out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name
of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down
out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new
name. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith
unto the churches. Glimpses of God
