The shelter psalm: 'He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.' My refuge and my fortress; under his wings; his truth a shield and buckler. No terror by night nor arrow by day; a thousand fall at thy side and it shall not come nigh thee. 'He will give his angels charge over thee', the verse Satan misquotes in the wilderness. Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: 'he shall call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble… and show him my salvation.'
