2 Samuel 22:44 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 22:44

Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people,
thou hast kept me [to be] head of the heathen: a people [which] I knew
not shall serve me.] (See Gill on Psalms 18:43).

2 Samuel 22:44 In-Context

42 They look for help, but no one saves them; they call to the Lord, but he does not answer.
43 I crush them, and they become like dust; I trample on them like mud in the streets.
44 You saved me from my rebellious people and maintained my rule over the nations; people I did not know have now become my subjects.
45 Foreigners bow before me; when they hear me, they obey.
46 They lose their courage and come trembling from their fortresses.
