'Protects' in the Bible

How happy you are, Israel!Who is like you,a people saved by the Lord?He is the shield that protects you,the sword you boast in.Your enemies will cringe before you,and you will tread on their backs.

“When someone pursues you and attempts to take your life, my lord’s life will be tucked safely in the place where the Lord your God protects the living. However, He will fling away your enemies’ lives like stones from a sling.

Love the Lord, all His faithful ones.The Lord protects the loyal,but fully repays the arrogant.

He protects all his bones;not one of them is broken.

You who love the Lord, hate evil!He protects the lives of His godly ones;He rescues them from the power of the wicked.

The Lord protects you;the Lord is a shelter right by your side.

The Lord protects foreignersand helps the fatherless and the widow,but He frustrates the ways of the wicked.

The one who guards his mouth protects his life;the one who opens his lips invites his own ruin.

The Lord destroys the house of the proud,but He protects the widow’s territory.

The highway of the upright avoids evil;the one who guards his way protects his life.

If you say, “But we didn’t know about this,”won’t He who weighs hearts consider it?Won’t He who protects your life know?Won’t He repay a person according to his work?

If you see oppression of the poor and perversion of justice and righteousness in the province, don’t be astonished at the situation, because one official protects another official, and higher officials protect them.

He protects His flock like a shepherd;He gathers the lambs in His armsand carries them in the fold of His garment.He gently leads those that are nursing.
