Thematic Bible: A defence


Thematic Bible



But let all those who put their faith in you be glad with cries of joy at all times, and let all the lovers of your name be glad in you.

Let your ear be turned to me; take me quickly out of danger; be my strong Rock, my place of strength where I may be safe.

Like birds with outstretched wings, so will the Lord of armies be a cover to Jerusalem; he will be a cover and salvation for it, going over it he will keep it from danger.

For I will keep this town safe, for my honour, and for the honour of my servant David.

The Lord of armies will be a cover for them; and they will overcome, crushing under foot the armed men; they will take their blood for drink like wine: they will be full like the sides of the altar.

In that day the Lord will be a cover over the people of Jerusalem; and he who is feeble among them in that day will be as strong as David, and the family of David will be as God, as the angel of the Lord before them.
