“Bow your heavens!
Yahweh!
Come down!
Touch the mountains
So that they smoke!
Make the lightning flash!
Scatter them!
Send out your arrows!
Rout them!
Stretch out your hand from on high!
Set me free!
Rescue me
From the mighty waters!
Rescue me
From the hand of aliens!
They speak lies.
Their right hands are false.”
David wanted Yahweh to bow down the heavens. He wanted Yahweh to come down to make the mountains smoke with a lightning flash. He wanted Yahweh to come down and rescue him from the mighty waters and the hands of aliens or strangers. These aliens, of course, speak lies with their false right hands.
