Psalm 144:5 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 144.

1 Of David. Blessed be the LORD, my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle.

2 He is my steadfast love and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer. He is my shield, in whom I take refuge, who subdues peoples under me.

3 O LORD, what is man, that You regard him, the son of man that You think of him?

4 Man is like a breath; his days are like a passing shadow.

5 Part Your heavens, O LORD, and come down; touch the mountains, that they may smoke.

6 Flash forth Your lightning and scatter them; shoot Your arrows and rout them.

7 Reach down from on high; set me free and rescue me from the deep waters, from the grasp of foreigners,

8 whose mouths speak falsehood, whose right hands are deceitful.

9 I will sing to You a new song, O God; on a harp of ten strings I will make music to You—
