30. This God — how perfect are his deeds!How dependable his words!He is like a shieldfor all who seek his protection.
31. The Lord alone is God;God alone is our defence.
32. He is the God who makes me strong,who makes my pathway safe.
33. He makes me sure-footed as a deer;he keeps me safe on the mountains.
34. He trains me for battle,so that I can use the strongest bow.
35. O Lord, you protect me and save me;your care has made me great,and your power has kept me safe.
36. You have kept me from being captured,and I have never fallen.
37. I pursue my enemies and catch them;I do not stop until I destroy them.
38. I strike them down, and they cannot rise;they lie defeated before me.
39. You give me strength for the battleand victory over my enemies.
40. You make my enemies run from me;I destroy those who hate me.
