A Psalm of David.

Fight against those who fight against me.

Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the Lord;

Awake as in the days of old, the generations of long ago.

Who pierced the dragon?

In the sight of all the nations,

That all the ends of the earth may see

The salvation of our God.

On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying,
“To your descendants I have given this land,
From the river of Egypt as far as the great river, the river Euphrates:

I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your descendants after you.

and said, “By Myself I have sworn, declares the Lord, because you have done this thing and have not withheld your son, your only son,

Sojourn in this land and I will be with you and bless you, for to you and to your descendants I will give all these lands, and I will establish the oath which I swore to your father Abraham.

And behold, the Lord stood above it and said, “I am the Lord, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie, I will give it to you and to your descendants.

He has remembered His covenant forever,
The word which He commanded to a thousand generations,

To show mercy toward our fathers,

And to remember His holy covenant,

For when God made the promise to Abraham, since He could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself,

Thou

Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock at Horeb; and you shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, that the people may drink.” And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.

Then Moses lifted up his hand and struck the rock twice with his rod; and water came forth abundantly, and the congregation and their beasts drank.

He split the rocks in the wilderness
And gave them abundant drink like the ocean depths.

He opened the rock and water flowed out;

It ran in the dry places like a river.

and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking from a spiritual rock which followed them; and the rock was Christ.

And wither all their vegetation;
