David’s Psalm of Deliverance

22 David composed the words of this song to the Lord the very day the Lord delivered him from the domination[a] of all of his enemies, including from Saul’s hands. This is what[b] he said:

Lord, you are[c] my stone stronghold
    and my fortified place;
        you are continuously delivering[d] me.
He is my God,
    my strong stone—
        in him I will find my refuge—
my shield,
    the strength[e] of my salvation,
        my high tower,
my way of escape,
    and the one who is saving me.
        You will save me from violence.
