For the music director; by the Lord’s servant David, who sang
18:1 He said:
“I love
18:2 The Lord is my high ridge,
My God is my rocky summit where
my shield, the horn that saves me,
By David.
27:1 The Lord delivers and vindicates me!
I fear no one!
The Lord protects my life!
I am afraid of no one!
28:8 The Lord strengthens his people;
he protects and delivers his chosen king.
59:17 You are my source of strength! I will sing praises to you!
For God is my refuge,
62:6 He alone is my protector
He is my refuge;
62:7 God delivers me and exalts me;
God is my strong protector and my shelter.
118:14 The Lord gives me strength and protects me;
he has become my deliverer.”
3:17 When
and there are no grapes on the vines;
when the olive trees do not produce,
and the fields yield no crops;
when the sheep disappear
and there are no cattle in the stalls,
3:18 I will rejoice because of
I will be happy because of the God who delivers me!
3:19 The sovereign Lord is my source of strength.
He gives me the agility of a deer;
he enables me to negotiate the rugged terrain.
