28 O Lord, you give me light;you dispel my darkness.
29 You give me strength to attack my enemiesand power to overcome their defences.
30 This God — how perfect are his deeds!How dependable his words!He is like a shieldfor all who seek his protection.
31 The Lord alone is God;God alone is our defence.
32 He is the God who makes me strong,who makes my pathway safe.
33 He makes me sure-footed as a deer;he keeps me safe on the mountains.
34 He trains me for battle,so that I can use the strongest bow.
