2 Samuel 22:34

Strength and help in weaknessProtection and safetyCourage and strength

32 For who is God besides the LORD? And who is the Rock except our God?

33 God is my strong fortress and He makes my way clear.

He makes my feet like those of a deer and stations me upon the heights.

35 He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

36 You have given me Your shield of salvation, and Your gentleness exalts me.
