Context of Psalms 144:13
11Grab me and rescue me from the power of foreigners, who speak lies, and make false promises. 12Then our sons will be like plants, that quickly grow to full size. Our daughters will be like corner pillars, carved like those in a palace. Our storehouses will be full, providing all kinds of food. Our sheep will multiply by the thousands and fill our pastures. 14Our cattle will be weighted down with produce. No one will break through our walls, no one will be taken captive, and there will be no terrified cries in our city squares. 15How blessed are the people who experience these things! How blessed are the people whose God is the Lord!
