Psalms 18
American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)
1 Ref I love thee, O Jehovah, my strength.
2 Ref Jehovah is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; My God, my rock, in whom I will take refuge; My shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.
3 Ref I will call upon Jehovah, who is worthy to be praised: So shall I be saved from mine enemies.
4 Ref The cords of death compassed me, And the floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
