¹David spoke to Yahweh the words of this song in the day that Yahweh delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul:

¹Aßan aßin li bich li quixbicha laj David re xlokßoninquil li Kâcuaß xban nak li Kâcuaß quixcol aßan chiru laj Saúl ut chiruheb chixjunileb li xicß nequeßiloc re:

²and he said, “Yahweh is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer, even mine;

²Li Kâcuaß, aßan li na-iloc cue. Aßan li nacoloc cue. Chanchan jun sakônac bar nincol cuiß cuib.

³God, my rock, in him I will take refuge; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge. My savior, you save me from violence.

³Li Kâcuaß, aßan lin Dios. Aßan li nacoloc cue. Cau inchßôl riqßuin. Chanchan li chßîchß li nincol cuiß cuib. Aßan nacoloc cue riqßuin xnimal xcuanquil. Chanchan jun naßajej najt xteram bar ninmuk cuiß cuib. Aßan li nacoloc cue chiru li ra xîcß.

⁴I will call on Yahweh, who is worthy to be praised: So shall I be saved from my enemies.

⁴Tinqßue xlokßal li Kâcuaß xban nak xcßulub nak tâqßuehekß xlokßal. Tinyâba xcßabaß li Kâcuaß ut aßan tâcolok cue chiruheb li xicß nequeßiloc cue.

⁵For the waves of death surrounded me. The floods of ungodliness made me afraid.

⁵Chanchan ac câmc cue xban li mâusilal queßxbânu cue. Chanchan lix cacuil rok li palau li mâusilal nak xchal saß inbên ut xqßue inxiu.

⁶The cords of Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. were around me. The snares of death caught me.

⁶Chanchan nak li câmc yô chi numtâc saß inbên. Ut chanchan nak xeßxqßue li raßal chokß cue re tineßxcamsi.

⁷In my distress I called on Yahweh. Yes, I called to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple. My cry came into his ears.

⁷Nak kßaxal ra cuanquin, quinyâba xcßabaß li Kâcuaß. Ut li Kâcuaß quirabi lin tij toj saß lix templo. Quirabi nak quinjap cue chixtzßâmanquil intenkßanquil chiru.

⁸Then the earth shook and trembled. The foundations of heaven quaked and were shaken, because he was angry.

⁸Li ruchichßochß qui-ecßan saß xnaßaj. Ut qui-ecßan ajcuiß saß xnaßaj li nacûtun re li choxa xban nak yô xjoskßil li Kâcuaß.

⁹Smoke went up out of his nostrils. Fire out of his mouth devoured. Coals were kindled by it.

⁹Chanchan nak qui-el li sib saß rußuj. Chanchan nak quißel chak xam saß re, re sachoc. Chanchan li ru xam lochlo xxamlel.

¹⁰He bowed the heavens also, and came down. Thick darkness was under his feet.

¹⁰Chanchan nak quixte li choxa ut quicube saß ruchichßochß. Ut cuan chak li kßeki chok rubel rok.

¹¹He rode on a cherub, and flew. Yes, he was seen on the wings of the wind.

¹¹Cô saß junpât chirix jun li querubín. Quichal saß li ikß li chanchan cuan xxicß.

¹²He made darkness pavilions around himself: gathering of waters, and thick clouds of the skies.

¹²Quixmuk rib saß li kßeki chok. Sutsu xban li kßeki chok, li chok li naqßuehoc re li hab.

¹³At the brightness before him, coals of fire were kindled.

¹³Xban nak nalemtzßun lix lokßal, chanchan nak narepoc li rakß câk.

¹⁴Yahweh thundered from heaven. The Most High uttered his voice.

¹⁴Chanchan nak namok li câk nak quiâtinac li Kâcuaß chi cau xyâb xcux. Ut qui-abîc xyâb xcux li nimajcual Dios.

¹⁵He sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and confused them.

¹⁵Chanchan nak narepoc li câk nak quixcut lix tzimaj. Quixsach xnaßlebeb li xicß nequeßiloc cue ut quixchaßchaßi ruheb.

¹⁶Then the channels of the sea appeared. The foundations of the world were laid bare by the rebuke of Yahweh, At the blast of the breath of his nostrils.

¹⁶Nak li Kâcuaß quikßusuc, quicßutun li chßochß rubel li palau. Ut quicana chi cutanquil li nacûtun re li ruchichßochß. Chanchan yal apunbil quixbânu re.

¹⁷He sent from on high and he took me. He drew me out of many waters.

¹⁷Toj takecß quixqßue chak li rukß cue ut quinrisi saß li raylal. Chanchan nak quinrisi saß xchamal li palau.

¹⁸He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me, for they were too mighty for me.

¹⁸Quinixcol chiruheb li xicß nequeßiloc cue, li kßaxal cauheb rib. Quinixcol chiruheb, usta kßaxal cau xmetzßêuheb chicuu lâin.

¹⁹They came on me in the day of my calamity, but Yahweh was my support.

¹⁹Nak cuanquin saß raylal queßchal chi pletic cuiqßuin eb li xicß nequeßiloc cue. Abanan li Kâcuaß quinixtenkßa.

²⁰He also brought me out into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.

²⁰Quinixtenkßa re nak mâ ani chic tâchßißchßißînk cue. Quinixcol xban nak sa saß xchßôl cuiqßuin.

²¹Yahweh rewarded me according to my righteousness. He rewarded me according to the cleanness of my hands.

²¹Li Kâcuaß xqßue inkßajcâmunquil xban nak tîc inchßôl chiru. Li Kâcuaß x-osobtesin cue xban nak mâcßaß inmâc.

²²For I have kept the ways of Yahweh, and have not wickedly departed from my God.

²²Lâin xinbânu li cßaßru naxye saß lix chakßrab. Ut incßaß xintzßektâna li Kâcuaß.

²³For all his ordinances were before me. As for his statutes, I did not depart from them.

²³Lâin ninbânu chixjunil lix chakßrab li Kâcuaß. Ut incßaß ninkßet lin taklanquil xban.

²⁴I was also perfect toward him. I kept myself from my iniquity.

²⁴Lâin incßaß xinmâcob chiru li Kâcuaß. Ut incßaß xinbânu li mâusilal.

²⁵Therefore Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness, According to my cleanness in his eyesight.

²⁵Joßcan nak li Kâcuaß naxqßue inkßajcâmunquil aß yal chanru xtîquilal inchßôl. Naxqßue inkßajcâmunquil xban nak naxnau nak mâcßaß inmâc chiru.

²⁶With the merciful you will show yourself merciful. With the perfect man you will show yourself perfect.

²⁶At Kâcuaß, lâat nacacuuxtâna ru li ani na-uxtânan u. Ut kßaxal châbilat riqßuineb li nequeßxbânu li us.

²⁷With the pure you will show yourself pure. With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.

²⁷Lâat nacacuosobtesiheb li tîqueb xchßôl châcuu. Aban li incßaß useb xnaßleb cau nacakßuseb.

²⁸You will save the afflicted people, But your eyes are on the haughty, that you may bring them down.

²⁸Lâat nacatcoloc reheb li tenamit li nequeßxcubsi ribeb châcuu. Abanan nacacubsiheb xcuanquil li nequeßxnimobresi ribeb châcuu.

²⁹For you are my lamp, Yahweh. Yahweh will light up my darkness.

²⁹At Kâcuaß Dios, lâat li nacatcutanobresin re lin cßaßux. Niquinâcuisi saß kßojyîn ut niquinâqßue saß cutan.

³⁰For by you, I run against a troop. By my God, I leap over a wall.

³⁰Lâat nacatqßuehoc xcacuilal inchßôl chi pletic riqßuineb li xicß nequeßiloc cue. Ut lâat nacatqßuehoc incacuilal chi numecß saß xbêneb li tzßac li sutsûqueb cuiß.

³¹As for God, his way is perfect. The word of Yahweh is tested. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.

³¹Chixjunil li cßaßru naxbânu li Kâcuaß, aßan châbil ut tzßakal re ru. Ut li cßaßru naxyechißi ke, nakanau chi tzßakal nak tixqßue ke. Li Dios naxtenkßaheb li ani cauheb xchßôl riqßuin.

³²For who is God, besides Yahweh? Who is a rock, besides our God?

³²¿Ma cuan ta biß chic junak Dios joß li kaDios lâo? ¿Ma incßaß ta biß caßaj cuiß li kaDios naru nacoloc ke?

³³God is my strong fortress. He makes my way perfect.

³³Li Kâcuaß Dios, aßan li naqßuehoc incacuilal. Ut aßan li nacßutuc re lin be chicuu.

³⁴He makes his feet like hinds’ feet, and sets me on my high places.

³⁴Aßan na-iloc cue yalak bar ninnumeß re nak mâcßaß nincßul. Chanchanin li quej li naâlinac yalak bar saß qßuicheß.

³⁵He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms bend a bow of brass.

³⁵Li Kâcuaß natzoloc cue re nak tinnau pletic ut naxqßue inmetzßêu chi cutuc riqßuin li tzimaj yîbanbil riqßuin bronce.

³⁶You have also given me the shield of your salvation. Your gentleness has made me great.

³⁶At Kâcuaß, lâat nacatcoloc cue, ut xban xnimal lâ cuusilal xniman incuanquil.

³⁷You have enlarged my steps under me. My feet have not slipped.

³⁷Junelic niquinâtenkßa saß lin yußam. Chanchan nak xanimobresi ru li be chicuu re nak incßaß tâjolcßok li cuok.

³⁸I have pursued my enemies and destroyed them. I didn’t turn again until they were consumed.

³⁸Xincuâlinaheb li xicß nequeßiloc cue toj retal xinnumta saß xbêneb. Incßaß xincanabeb toj xinnumta saß xbêneb.

³⁹I have consumed them, and struck them through, so that they can’t arise. Yes, they have fallen under my feet.

³⁹Lâin xinchoy xcamsinquileb re nak incßaß chic teßcuaclîk. Xeßtßaneß ban chi cuok.

⁴⁰For you have armed me with strength for the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.

⁴⁰Lâat xatqßuehoc inmetzßêu re tinpletik. Lâat xakßaxtesiheb li xicß nequeßiloc cue rubel incuanquil.

⁴¹You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.

⁴¹Lâat xakßaxtesiheb saß cuukß li xicß nequeßiloc cue toj retal xinsach ruheb.

⁴²They looked, but there was none to save; even to Yahweh, but he didn’t answer them.

⁴²Xeßxjap reheb chixtzßâmanquil xtenkßanquil, abanan mâ ani quicoloc reheb. Queßxtzßâma xtenkßanquileb âcue, at Kâcuaß. Abanan lâat incßaß casume lix tijeb.

⁴³Then I beat them as small as the dust of the earth. I crushed them as the mire of the streets, and spread them abroad.

⁴³Chanchaneb li poks li nacßameß xban ikß nak xinsach ruheb. Chanchan yekßinbileb joß li sulul saß be xinbânu reheb.

⁴⁴You also have delivered me from the strivings of my people. You have kept me to be the head of the nations. A people whom I have not known will serve me.

⁴⁴Lâat xatcoloc cue chiruheb li yôqueb chi pletic cuiqßuin. Ut xinâqßue chi taklânc saß xbêneb li xnînkal ru tenamit. Nequeßcßanjelac chicuu li toj mâjiß ninnau ruheb.

⁴⁵The foreigners will submit themselves to me. As soon as they hear of me, they will obey me.

⁴⁵Eb li jalaneb xtenamit nequeßxcuikßib ribeb chicuu, ut nequeßxbânu li cßaßru ninye reheb.

⁴⁶The foreigners will fade away, and will come trembling out of their close places.

⁴⁶Li jalaneb xtenamit nequeßchßinan xchßôleb ut nequeßsicsot xban xxiuheb nak nequeßel saß li naßajej li nequeßxmuk cuiß ribeb.

⁴⁷Yahweh lives! Blessed be my rock! Exalted be God, the rock of my salvation,

⁴⁷Yoßyo li Kâcuaß Dios li nacoloc cue. Ut lokßoninbil taxak ru. Chinimâk taxak xlokßal li Kâcuaß laj Colol cue.

⁴⁸even the God who executes vengeance for me, who brings down peoples under me,

⁴⁸Li Dios xtenkßan cue chi numtâc saß xbêneb li xicß nequeßiloc cue. Ut xqßueheb li tenamit rubel incuanquil.

⁴⁹who brings me away from my enemies. Yes, you lift me up above those who rise up against me. You deliver me from the violent man.

⁴⁹Li Kâcuaß, aßan li nacoloc cue chiruheb li xicß nequeßiloc cue. Ut aßan naqßuehoc incuanquil chi numtâc saß xbêneb li nequeßraj pletic cuiqßuin. Ut aßan ajcuiß nacoloc cue chiruheb li nequeßrahobtesin cue.

⁵⁰Therefore I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations. Will sing praises to your name.

⁵⁰Joßcan nak lâin tinye resilal saß xyânkeb li xnînkal ru tenamit. Ut tinbicha lix lokßal li Kâcuaß Dios.Riqßuin xnimal xcuanquil li Kâcuaß xinixcol xban nak lâin li quinixxakab chokß rey. Ut aßan tâuxtânânk cuu, lâin li sicßbil cuu. Ut târuxtâna ajcuiß ruheb li cualal incßajol chi junelic, chan laj David.

⁵¹He gives great deliverance to his king, and shows loving kindness to his anointed, to David and to his seed, forevermore.”

⁵¹Riqßuin xnimal xcuanquil li Kâcuaß xinixcol xban nak lâin li quinixxakab chokß rey. Ut aßan tâuxtânânk cuu, lâin li sicßbil cuu. Ut târuxtâna ajcuiß ruheb li cualal incßajol chi junelic, chan laj David.
