Psalms 18
32 Ref The God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect?
33 Ref He makes my feet like deer's feet, And sets me on my high places.
34 Ref He teaches my hands to war; So that my arms bend a bow of bronze.
35 Ref You have also given me the shield of your salvation. Your right hand sustains me. Your gentleness has made me great.
36 Ref You have enlarged my steps under me, My feet have not slipped.
37 Ref I will pursue my enemies, and overtake them. Neither will I turn again until they are consumed.
38 Ref I will strike them through, so that they will not be able to rise. They shall fall under my feet.
39 Ref For you have girded me with strength to the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.
40 Ref You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, That I might cut off those who hate me.
41 Ref They cried, but there was none to save; Even to Yahweh, but he didn't answer them.
42 Ref Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind. I cast them out as the mire of the streets.
43 Ref You have delivered me from the strivings of the people. You have made me the head of the nations. A people whom I have not known shall serve me.
44 Ref As soon as they hear of me they shall obey me. The foreigners shall submit themselves to me.
45 Ref The foreigners shall fade away, And shall come trembling out of their close places.
46 Ref Yahweh lives; and blessed be my rock. Exalted be the God of my salvation,
47 Ref Even the God who executes vengeance for me, And subdues peoples under me.
48 Ref He rescues me from my enemies. Yes, you lift me up above those who rise up against me. You deliver me from the violent man.
49 Ref Therefore I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations, And will sing praises to your name.
50 Ref He gives great deliverance to his king, And shows loving kindness to his anointed, To David and to his seed, forevermore.
