'Defense' in the Bible
My shield and my defense depend on God,Who saves the upright in heart.
O [God] my strength, I will watch for You;For God is my stronghold [my refuge, my protector, my high tower].
But as for me, I will sing of Your mighty strength and power;Yes, I will sing joyfully of Your lovingkindness in the morning;For You have been my strongholdAnd a refuge in the day of my distress.
To You, O [God] my strength, I will sing praises;For God is my stronghold [my refuge, my protector, my high tower], the God who shows me [steadfast] lovingkindness.
“Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine;Ephraim is My helmet;Judah is My scepter.
He alone is my rock and my salvation,My defense and my strong tower; I will not be shaken or disheartened.
He only is my rock and my salvation;My fortress and my defense, I will not be shaken or discouraged.
But the Lord has become my high tower and defense,And my God the rock of my refuge.
“Gilead is Mine, Manasseh is Mine;Ephraim also is the helmet of My head [My stronghold, My defense];Judah is My scepter.
