“LORD, how they have increased who trouble me! Many are they who rise up against me....But You, O LORD, are a shield for me...." The word "LORD" in all capitals means that the Hebrew word is YHVH. This is the name of God. The Jews had such reverence for His name that would not even speak it. Instead, they used the phrase "The Name." YHVH is translated in some English Bibles as "Jehovah,” or LORD. This all powerful Being is your shield. Shield literally means around you. God is all around you to stand against those who would rise up against you. That is good news!
