Psalms 144:1-5 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

1. Praise the Lord! He is my Rock. He prepares me for war. He trains me for battle.

2. He loves me and protects me. He is my safe place high on the mountain. He rescues me. He is my shield. I trust in him. He helps me rule my people.

3. Lord, why are people important to you? Why do you even notice us?

4. Our life is like a puff of air. It is like a passing shadow.

5. Lord, tear open the skies and come down. Touch the mountains, and smoke will rise from them.
