18. For the Lord is our shield of defense,and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
19. Long ago You spoke in a visionto Your godly one and said:“I have given help to one who is mighty;I have exalted one chosen from the people.
20. I have found David, My servant;with My holy oil I have anointed him:
21. By whom My hand shall be established;My arm also shall strengthen him.
22. The enemy shall not take tribute from him,nor the wicked humiliate him.
