3But You, O Lord, are a shield for me, # Ps 28:7

4I cried to the Lord with my voice,
and He answered me from His holy hill. # Ps 2:6; 34:4 Selah
5I lay down and slept; # Lev 26:6; Ps 4:8; Pr 3:24
I awoke, for the Lord sustained me.
6I will not be afraid of multitudes of people
who have set themselves against me all around. # Ps 118:10–12
7Arise, O Lord;
save me, O my God!
For You have struck all my enemies on the cheek; # Job 16:10
You have broken the teeth of the wicked. # Ps 58:6
8Salvation belongs to the Lord. # Isa 43:11
Your blessing is on Your people. # Ps 29:11 Selah
