144 ⁽⁰⁾ By David:

⁽¹⁾ Blessed be Adonai, my rock,
who trains my hands for war
and my fingers for battle.
² He shows me grace; and he is my fortress,
my stronghold, in whom I find shelter,
my shield, in whom I take refuge,
who subdues my people under me.

³ Adonai, what are mere mortals,
that you notice them at all;
humans, that you think about them?
