2 Samuel 22

Gen Z: 2 Samuel 22

1David hit up the Lord with this lit song after he got saved from all his haters, including Saul.

2He said, "The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my go-to for rescue."

3The God of my rock; I trust Him for real: He’s my shield, my salvation vibe, my high tower, and my safe space; He saves me from the drama.

4I’m gonna call on the Lord, who's totally worth the praise: I’ll be saved from my enemies, no cap.

5When the waves of death were closing in, the floods of sus people had me shook.

6The feels of hell surrounded me; the traps of death had me on edge.

7In my struggle, I called out to the Lord and cried to my God: He heard my voice from His spot, and my cry hit His ears.

8Then the earth was like, "Whoa!" and shook; the foundations of heaven were vibing hard because He was mad.

9Smoke puffed outta His nostrils, and fire from His mouth was devouring stuff: coals were lit by it.

10He pulled the heavens down low and came through; darkness was under His feet, fr.

11He pulled up on a cherub, flexin' in the sky like a boss, riding the wind vibes.

12He threw up some dark vibes around him, like heavy clouds and deep waters, no cap.

13The brightness before him was lit, like coals of fire igniting.

14The Lord was thundering from heaven, spitting bars with the most High's voice.

15He shot out arrows, scattering vibes; lightning hit different, and they were shook.

16The sea's channels showed up, like the world's foundation was revealed when the Lord popped off, just breathing heavy.

17He swooped down from above, pulled me up; he rescued me from the deep waters, fr.

18He saved me from my savage enemy and the haters: they were too strong, no cap.

19They jumped me on my worst day: but the Lord had my back, periodt.

20He brought me to a chill spot, rescued me, 'cause he was vibing with me.

21The Lord blessed me for keeping it 100: my hands were clean, so He hooked me up.

22I stayed on the Lord's grind and didn’t dip out on my God, no cap.

23All His rules were in my face, and I didn’t bounce from them, periodt.

24I kept it real with Him and stayed away from my mess.

25So, the Lord rewarded me for being righteous; my vibe was pure in His sight.

26If you’re merciful, He’s gonna show you mercy; if you’re real, He’s all about that realness too.

27If you’re pure, He’ll keep it pure with you; if you’re shady, He’s not about that life.

28He’s gonna save the ones in need, but He’s got His eye on the cocky to bring them down a notch.

29You’re my light, Lord; you’re gonna shine in my dark times, fr.

30With you, I’ve taken down a whole squad; with my God, I’ve jumped over walls like it’s nothing.

31God's vibes are perfect; His word is tried and true: He’s a total shield for all who trust Him, no cap.

32Who even is God, but the Lord? And who’s a solid rock, but our God?

33God is my strength and power: He makes my way lit.

34He gives me feet like a gazelle's: and sets me up in high places, fr.

35He trains my hands for battle; like, I can break a steel bow with my arms, savage.

36You’ve given me the shield of salvation: your gentleness makes me goated.

37You’ve made my steps secure; my feet ain't slipping, periodt.

38I chased down my enemies and wrecked them; didn’t stop until they were done for.

39I totally consumed them and hurt them so they couldn’t get back up: they’re under my feet now.

40You’ve strapped me with strength for battle: those who rose up against me, you put them down.

41You’ve given me the necks of my haters, so I can take them out, no cap.

42They looked around, but no one was saving them; even hit up the Lord, but he ghosted.

43I crushed them to dust, like straight-up street grime, and scattered them everywhere.

44You pulled me from the drama of my crew, kept me as the boss of the nations: people I didn’t even know will vibe with me.

45Strangers gonna bow down to me: the moment they hear, they’ll be all in, fr.

46Strangers gonna dip, and they’ll be shook in their hiding spots.

47The Lord's alive; bless up my rock; big ups to the God who saves me.

48It’s God who’s got my back, and takes down the squad under me,

49And lifts me high above my enemies: you’ve saved me from the savage dudes.

50So I’m gonna shout out thanks to you, Lord, among the nations, and I’ll drop some fire praises for your name.

51He’s the ultimate safety net for his king, showing mad love to his chosen one, David, and his fam forever.

KJV: 2 Samuel 22

1And David spake unto the Lord the words of this song in the day that the Lord had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul:

2And he said, The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer;

3The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.

4I will call on the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.

5When the waves of death compassed me, the floods of ungodly men made me afraid;

6The sorrows of hell compassed me about; the snares of death prevented me;

7In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.

8Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was wroth.

9There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.

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

11And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.

12And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.

13Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.

14The Lord thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his voice.

15And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.

16And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of the Lord, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.

17He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;

18He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.

19They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the Lord was my stay.

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

21The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.

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

23For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.

24I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity.

25Therefore the Lord hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.

26With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright.

27With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury.

28And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.

29For thou art my lamp, O Lord: and the Lord will lighten my darkness.

30For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall.

31As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.

32For who is God, save the Lord? and who is a rock, save our God?

33God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.

34He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet: and setteth me upon my high places.

35He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.

36Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great.

37Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not slip.

38I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them.

39And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they are fallen under my feet.

40For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against me hast thou subdued under me.

41Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me.

42They looked, but there was none to save; even unto the Lord, but he answered them not.

43Then did I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as the mire of the street, and did spread them abroad.

44Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, thou hast kept me to be head of the heathen: a people which I knew not shall serve me.

45Strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient unto me.

46Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places.

47The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.

48It is God that avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me,

49And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: thou also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.

50Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the heathen, and I will sing praises unto thy name.

51He is the tower of salvation for his king: and sheweth mercy to his anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore.
