The Lord your God has caused you to settle down and has brought you to a place of rest and quiet. He has decided that no man or woman will ever move you from that place. Even if your enemy is a champion among men, he will not be able oppress or exploit you. The greatest that the world has to offer will not be permitted to do you wrong, defraud or violate you. No one is allowed to contend with, quarrel with, strive against or exploit you. God will even judge kings who try to oppress you. He will reprove, rebuke or correct them if the need should arise.

Jehovah has anointed you because you belong to Him. You are consecrated to Him and He has given you His Holy Spirit. He, therefore, has commanded that none can strike or touch you to do you harm. If an enemy starts to extend his hand towards you, the Lord Himself will protect you.

You are His spokesman. You speak His word to His people and at times you prophesy. Therefore, the Lord will not allow any bad or evil to come against you. Nothing displeasing, sad or injurious can make you falter. You will not be shattered or broken. You are chosen of the God Almighty and His hand of blessing rests on you.
