18 Our Lord and our King,the Holy One of Israel,you are truly our shield.
19 In a vision, you once saidto your faithful followers:“I have helped a mighty hero.I chose him from my peopleand made him famous.
20 David, my servant, is the oneI chose to be king,
21 and I will always be thereto help and strengthen him.
22 “No enemy will outsmart David,and he won't be defeatedby any hateful people.
23 I will strike down and crushhis troublesome enemies.
