Many are rising up against me. 2Many are saying of my soul, “There is no deliverance for him in God.” Selah . 3But You, O Lord, are a shield about me, my glory, and the One who lifts my head. 4I was crying to the Lord with my voice, and He answered me from His holy mountain. Selah. 5I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the Lord sustains me. 6I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me round about. 7Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God! For You have smitten all my enemies on the cheek; You have shattered the teeth of the wicked. 8Salvation belongs to the Lord; Your blessing be upon Your people! Selah. II SAMUEL 12:10-11a "Now therefore, the sword shall never depart from your house, because you have despised Me and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your wife." 11Thus says the Lord, "Behold, I will raise up evil against you from your own household." II SAMUEL 15:30 David went up the ascent of the Mount of Olives, and wept as he went, and his head was covered and he walked barefoot. Then all the people who were with him each covered his head and went up weeping as they went. EPHESIANS 2:1-4a You were dead in your trespasses and sins, 2in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. 3 Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest. 4But God. GENESIS 15:1 The word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, 4saying, “Do not fear, Abram, I am a shield to you; your reward shall be very great.” PSALM 55:22 Cast your burden upon the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken.
