Psalms 18:38-45

³⁸I smashed them, they could not rise, they fell beneath my feet.

³⁹You did arm me with strength for war, you did bow my assailants beneath me.

⁴⁰You made my foes turn their back to me, and those who did hate me I finished.

⁴¹They cried for help, but none saved them; to the Lord, but he answered them not.

⁴²I beat them like dust of the market-place, stamped them like mud of the streets.

⁴³From the strife of the peoples you saved me, you made me head of the nations, peoples I knew not did serve me.

⁴⁴On the instant they hear, they obey me, foreigners come to me cringing.

⁴⁵Foreigners lose courage, and come out of their strongholds trembling.
