1 And Dovid spoke unto Hashem the devarim of this shirah (song) in the day that Hashem had delivered him out of the palm of all his oyevim (enemies) and out of the palm of Sha'ul:
2 And he said, Hashem is my rock, and my matzadah, and my deliverer;
3 The Elohei (G-d of) my Tzur; in Him will I trust; He is my mogen, and the keren of my Salvation, my stronghold, and my refuge, my Moshia; Thou savest me from chamas.
4 I will call on Hashem, Who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my oyevim.
5 When the waves of mavet (death) compassed me, the floods of scoundrels overwhelm me;
6 The chevlei Sheol (cords of Sheol) encompassed me; the snares of mavet confronted me;
