Psalms 144:2-8

Psalms 144:2-8 NCV

He protects me like a strong, walled city, and he loves me. He is my defender and my Savior, my shield and my protection. He helps me keep my people under control. LORD, why are people important to you? Why do you even think about human beings? People are like a breath; their lives are like passing shadows. LORD, tear open the sky and come down. Touch the mountains so they will smoke. Send the lightning and scatter my enemies. Shoot your arrows and force them away. Reach down from above. Save me and rescue me out of this sea of enemies, from these foreigners. They are liars; they are dishonest.
