38When I strike them, they are not able to get up again; they lie on the ground, defeated.
39You have enabled me to be strong in order that I can fight battles and defeat my enemies.
40You caused my enemies to run away (OR, you enabled me to put my foot on my enemies' necks after I captured them and forced them to lie on the ground); I have gotten rid of all those who hated me.
41They called out for someone to help them, but no one saved them.
42I pulverize them, with the result that they become like MET the dust that the wind blows away; I throw them out like SIM people throw dirt out into the streets.
43You enabled me to defeat those who fought against me, and appointed me to be the ruler of many nations; people whom I did not know about previously are now slaves in my kingdom.
44When foreigners hear about me, they ◄cringe/bow low before me► and they obey me.
