³ So people of strong nations will praise you.
    The people of cruel nations will be afraid of you.
⁴ You Lord have been a safe place for poor people.
When helpless people were in trouble,
    you have kept them safe.
You were a place for them to hide from the storm.
    You gave them shade from the heat.
Yes, cruel people attack them
    like a storm that hits against a wall.
⁵     and like strong heat in the desert.
You Lord stopped the proud noise of foreign people.
Like the shadow of a cloud that stops the heat of the sun,
    you stopped our cruel enemy's songs.
You stopped them as they boasted of their strength.
