A city under attack

2 A scatterer has come up against you.
        Guard the ramparts, watch the road,
            protect your groin, save your[a] strength!
2 The Lord will restore the pride of Jacob,
        indeed, the pride of Israel,
            because ravagers have destroyed
            them and spoiled their branches.
