He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
Of David. Blessed be the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle;
He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; he breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the chariots with fire.
You have given me the shield of your salvation, and your gentleness made me great.
Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the mainstay of their might.
Thus says the Lord to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have grasped, to subdue nations before him and to loose the belts of kings, to open doors before him that gates may not be closed:
and a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
And on that day I will break the bow of Israel in the Valley of Jezreel.”
