Psalms 144:12-15 American Standard (ASV)

- Read this chapter

12 When our sons shall be as plants grown up in their youth, And our daughters as corner-stones hewn after the fashion of a palace;

13 `When' our garners are full, affording all manner of store, `And' our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields;

14 `When' our oxen are well laden; `When there is' no breaking in, and no going forth, And no outcry in our streets:

15 Happy is the people that is in such a case; `Yea', happy is the people whose God is Jehovah. Psalm 145 `A' `Psalm' `of' praise; of David.

PSALM 144

Ps 144:1-15. David's praise of God as his all-sufficient help is enhanced by a recognition of the intrinsic worthlessness of man. Confidently imploring God's interposition against his enemies, he breaks forth into praise and joyful anticipations of the prosperity of his kingdom, when freed from vain and wicked men.
