Exegesis
The focus shifts to a verbal clause with magen {מָגֵן | mā-gēn} “shield” as subject and hu bo {הוּא בּוֹ | hū bō} “He is in Him” as predicate, while the participial phrase lekol-hachosim {לְכָל־הַחֹסִים | lə-kōl ha-ḥō-sîm} “for all who take refuge” specifies beneficiaries. The chiastic structure and asyndeton underscore divine integrity and protective promise, rendered in English with explicit verbs and balanced clauses for clarity.
In context — Psalm 18:30
The God —His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is refined . He is a shield for all who take refuge in Him.
