Invoking that reality

(Quotations from The Tanakh)

The name of the LORD is a tower of strength to which the righteous man runs and is safe.
(The Kethuvim -- Proverbs 18:10)

But let all who take refuge in You rejoice, ever jubilant as You shelter them; and let those who love Your name exult in You. For You surely bless the righteous man, O LORD, encompassing him with favor like a shield.
(The Kethuvim -- Psalms 5:12-13; the same passage is found at Psalms 5:11-12 in the Christian Bible)
