And wrapped Himself with zeal as a cloak.

17He put on righteousness like a breastplate,

And a helmet of salvation on His head;

And He put on garments of vengeance for clothing

And wrapped Himself with zeal as a mantle.

17For He [the Lord] put on righteousness like a coat of armor,

And salvation like a helmet on His head;

He put on garments of vengeance for clothing

And covered Himself with zeal [and great love for His people] as a cloak. [Eph 6:14, 17; 1 Thess 5:8]

He’ll put the helmet of salvation on his head.

He’ll pay people back for the wrong things they do.

He’ll wrap himself in anger as if it were a coat.
