Psalms 59:10

God's loveProtection and safetyGod's presence

8 But You, O LORD, laugh at them; You scoff at all the nations.

9 I will keep watch for You, O my strength, because You, O God, are my fortress.

My God of loving devotion will come to meet me; God will let me stare down my foes.

11 Do not kill them, or my people will forget. Scatter them by Your power, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.

12 By the sins of their mouths and the words of their lips, let them be trapped in their pride, in the curses and lies they utter.
