1 When the Lord saved David from Saul and his other enemies, David sang this song to the Lord:
2 The Lord is my protector;he is my strong fortress.
3 My God is my protection,and with him I am safe.He protects me like a shield;he defends me and keeps me safe.He is my saviour;he protects me and saves me from violence.
4 I call to the Lord,and he saves me from my enemies.Praise the Lord!
5 The waves of death were all round me;the waves of destruction rolled over me.
