31God — his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is pure. He is a shield to all who take refuge in him. 32For who is God besides the Lord? And who is a rock? Only our God. God is my strong refuge; he makes my way perfect. 34He makes my feet like the feet of a deer and sets me securely on the heights. 35He trains my hands for war; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
