47 The Lord lives, and blessed be my Rock;
And exalted be [a](A)my God, the rock of my salvation,
48 (B)The God who executes vengeance for me,
(C)And brings down peoples under me,
49 Who also brings me out from my enemies;
You also raise me above (D)those who rise up against me;
(E)You rescue me from the violent person.
50 (F)Therefore I will [b]give thanks to You, Lord, among the nations,
And I will sing praises to Your name.
51 (G)He is a tower of [c]salvation to His king,
And (H)shows favor to His anointed,
(I)To David and his [d]descendants forever.”
