4 We disappear like a breath;we last no longerthan a faint shadow.
5 Open the heavens like a curtainand come down, Lord.Touch the mountainsand make them send up smoke.
6 Use your lightning as arrowsto scatter my enemiesand make them run away.
7 Reach down from heavenand set me free.Save me from the mighty flood
8 of those lying foreignerswho can't tell the truth.
9 In praise of you, our God,I will sing a new song,while playing my harp.
10 By your power, kings win wars,and your servant David is savedfrom deadly swords.
