Praise For Salvation

4 For thou art the poor man's help, and strength for the needful in his necessity. Thou art a defense against evil weather and a shadow against the heat, when the blast of the raging men is like a storm that casteth down a wall. 5 Like as the heat in a dry place wasteth all things, so shalt thou suppress the noise of the aliens. The heat is abated with the shadow of the cloud; even so shall God assuage the noise of the cruel tyrants. 6 Moreover, the LORD of Hosts shall once prepare a feast for all people upon the hill: A plenteous, costly, pleasant feast, of fat and well-fed beasts, of sweet and most pure things.
