For the LORD your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory.
But the LORD is righteous; he has cut me free from the cords of the wicked.
By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?
I will not fear the tens of thousands drawn up against me on every side. Arise, O LORD! Deliver me, O my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked. From the LORD comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people. Selah
'The time has come,' he said. 'The kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe the good news!'
