2 Take hold of shield and buckler, And stand up for my help.
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and rise for my help,
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for my help;
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, And stand up for my help.
2 Be a breastplate to me, and give me your help.
The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies.
If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me. I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy.
If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready. He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
