Your power is awesome. You have brought down whole cities,
    turned fortresses and strongholds into piles of sticks and rubble.
A citadel of foreigners is no longer even a city.
    Those structures are gone forever.
This is why nations strong and mighty will glorify You;
    the cities of ruthless people will fear and respect You.

Giving them safe harbor and cool shade when it’s hot;
    You shelter them from their oppressors’ blows
As a strong wall holds back the driving rain.
