Psalms 18:38-48

³⁸(18-39) I have smitten them through, so that they are not able to rise; they are fallen under my feet.

³⁹(18-40) For Thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle; Thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.

⁴⁰(18-41) Thou hast also made mine enemies turn their backs unto me, and I did cut off them that hate me.

⁴¹(18-42) They cried, but there was none to save; even unto the LORD, but He answered them not.

⁴²(18-43) Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind; I did cast them out as the mire of the streets.

⁴³(18-44) Thou hast delivered me from the contentions of the people; Thou hast made me the head of the nations; a people whom I have not known serve me.

⁴⁴(18-45) As soon as they hear of me, they obey me; the sons of the stranger dwindle away before me.

⁴⁵(18-46) The sons of the stranger fade away, and come trembling out of their close places.

⁴⁶(18-47) The LORD liveth, and blessed be my Rock; and exalted be the God of my salvation;

⁴⁷(18-48) Even the God that executeth vengeance for me, and subdueth peoples under me.

⁴⁸(18-49) He delivereth me from mine enemies; yea, Thou liftest me up above them that rise up against me; Thou deliverest me from the violent man.
