Psalms 60:5-12
Deliver by your power and answer me, so that the ones you love may be safe.God has spoken in his sanctuary:“ I will triumph! I will parcel out Shechem; the Valley of Succoth I will measure off.Gilead belongs to me, as does Manasseh! Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my royal scepter.Moab is my washbasin. I will make Edom serve me. I will shout in triumph over Philistia.”Who will lead me into the fortified city? Who will bring me to Edom?Have you not rejected us, O God? O God, you do not go into battle with our armies.Give us help against the enemy, for any help men might offer is futile.By God’s power we will conquer; he will trample down our enemies.

King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz prayed about this and cried out to heaven.The LORD sent a messenger and he wiped out all the soldiers, princes, and officers in the army of the king of Assyria. So Sennacherib returned home humiliated.

He made them secure on every side.

Isaiah 51:2-11
Look at Abraham, your father, and Sarah, who gave you birth. When I summoned him, he was a lone individual, but I blessed him and gave him numerous descendants.Certainly the LORD will console Zion; he will console all her ruins. He will make her wilderness like Eden, her desert like the Garden of the LORD. Happiness and joy will be restored to her, thanksgiving and the sound of music.Pay attention to me, my people! Listen to me, my people! For I will issue a decree, I will make my justice a light to the nations.I am ready to vindicate, I am ready to deliver, I will establish justice among the nations. The coastlands wait patiently for me; they wait in anticipation for the revelation of my power.Look up at the sky! Look at the earth below! For the sky will dissipate like smoke, and the earth will wear out like clothes; its residents will die like gnats. But the deliverance I give is permanent; the vindication I provide will not disappear.Listen to me, you who know what is right, you people who are aware of my law! Don’t be afraid of the insults of men; don’t be discouraged because of their abuse!For a moth will eat away at them like clothes; a clothes moth will devour them like wool. But the vindication I provide will be permanent; the deliverance I give will last.”Wake up! Wake up! Clothe yourself with strength, O arm of the LORD! Wake up as in former times, as in antiquity! Did you not smash the Proud One? Did you not wound the sea monster?Did you not dry up the sea, the waters of the great deep? Did you not make a path through the depths of the sea, so those delivered from bondage could cross over?Those whom the LORD has ransomed will return; they will enter Zion with a happy shout. Unending joy will crown them, happiness and joy will overwhelm them; grief and suffering will disappear.
