“You mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew or rain upon you, nor fields of offerings! For there the shield of the mighty was defiled, the shield of Saul, not anointed with oil.

And David took the shields of gold that were carried by the servants of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem.

my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge, my savior; you save me from violence.

This God—his way is perfect; the word of the Lord proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.

You have given me the shield of your salvation, and your gentleness made me great.
