The Lord Is My Rock and My Fortress
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, (A)the servant of the Lord, (B)who addressed the words of this (C)song to the Lord on the day when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul. He said:
18 I love you, O Lord, my strength.
2 The Lord is my (D)rock and my (E)fortress and my deliverer,
my God, my (F)rock, in (G)whom I take refuge,
my (H)shield, and (I)the horn of my salvation, my (J)stronghold.
Deuteronomy 33:27-29
English Standard Version
27 The eternal God is your (A)dwelling place,[a]
and underneath are the everlasting arms.[b]
And he thrust out the enemy before you
and said, ‘Destroy.’
28 So Israel lived in safety,
(B)Jacob lived (C)alone,[c]
in a land of grain and wine,
whose heavens drop down dew.
29 Happy are you, O Israel! (D)Who is like you,
a people (E)saved by the Lord,
(F)the shield of your help,
and the sword of your triumph!
Your enemies shall come fawning to you,
and you shall tread upon their backs.”

45 Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword and with a spear and with (A)a javelin, but I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, (B)whom you have defied. 46 This day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you down and cut off your head. (C)And I will give the dead bodies of the host of the Philistines this day (D)to the birds of the air and to the wild beasts of the earth, (E)that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel, 47 and that all this assembly may know that (F)the Lord saves not with sword and spear. (G)For the battle is the Lord's, and he will give you into our hand.”
48 When the Philistine arose and came and drew near to meet David, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet the Philistine. 49 And David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone and slung it and struck the Philistine on his forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the ground.
50 So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine and killed him. There was no sword in the hand of David. 51 Then David ran and stood over the Philistine (H)and took his sword and drew it out of its sheath and killed him and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, (I)they fled.
