'Defence' in the Bible

Bow down thine ear unto me; deliver me speedily: Be thou to me a strong rock, A house of defence to save me.

Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of my head; Judah is my sceptre.

Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of my head; Judah is my sceptre.
