So this is what the Lord says about the king of Assyria: "He will not enter this city, nor will he shoot an arrow here. He will not attack it with his shield-carrying warriors, nor will he build siege works against it.

The Lord is your shade on your right hand.

And the Philistine came on and on, and drew near unto David, - and the man carrying the shield was before him.

The shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam and the iron point of his spear weighed 600 shekels. A man carrying his shield walked in front of him.

He defiantly ran against him carrying his thick, reinforced shield.
