Context of 2 Samuel 22:33
31The one true God acts in a faithful manner; the Lord’s promise is reliable; he is a shield to all who take shelter in him. 32Indeed, who is God besides the Lord? Who is a protector besides our God? The one true God is my mighty refuge; he removes the obstacles in my way. 34He gives me the agility of a deer; he enables me to negotiate the rugged terrain. 35He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend even the strongest bow.
