Deuteronomy 33:27

ComfortProtection and safetyGod's presenceEternal life

25 May the bolts of your gate be iron and bronze, and may your strength match your days.”

26 “There is none like the God of Jeshurun, who rides the heavens to your aid, and the clouds in His majesty.

The eternal God is your dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He drives out the enemy before you, giving the command, ‘Destroy him!’

28 So Israel dwells securely; the fountain of Jacob lives untroubled in a land of grain and new wine, where even the heavens drip with dew.

29 Blessed are you, O Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the LORD? He is the shield that protects you, the sword in which you boast. Your enemies will cower before you, and you shall trample their high places.”
