18 The Lord will protect his chestwith deeds of fairness,and for a helmet he will wearequal justice for all.
19 Holiness will be his strong shield,
20 and fierce anger will behis sharp sword.All creation will join with himin fighting his crazy enemies.
21 Arrows of lightning will leapfrom behind the cloudsand never miss their target.
22 Fearsome hailstones will strikethe Lord's enemies,while ocean waves and riversroll over them like a flood.
23 Then a mighty windstormwill sweep them away—because lawlessness and evilbring ruin to the whole earthand to every kingdom.
