Psalms 144:12 Context
10It is he that giueth saluation vnto kings: who deliuereth Dauid his seruant from the hurtfull sword. 11Rid me, and deliuer me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanitie: and their right hand is a right hand of falshood. 12That our sonnes may be as plants growen vp in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace: 13That our garners may bee full, affoording all maner of store; that our sheepe may bring forth thousands, and tenne thousands in our streetes. 14That our oxen may be strong to labour, that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streetes.
