The verses around Psalms 84:11.
9Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
10For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
12O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
Verse explanation
“A sun and shield” joins two opposite images: the sun gives light, warmth, and life, the shield protects from danger. Together they describe God as the source of both what sustains and what defends.
From the Psalms 84 study in Bible in Stories.
