Psalm 18:36-44

New Revised Standard NRS

36 You gave me a wide place for my steps under me, and my feet did not slip.

37 I pursued my enemies and overtook them; and did not turn back until they were consumed.

38 I struck them down, so that they were not able to rise; they fell under my feet.

39 For you girded me with strength for the battle; you made my assailants sink under me.

40 You made my enemies turn their backs to me, and those who hated me I destroyed.

41 They cried for help, but there was no one to save them; they cried to the Lord, but he did not answer them.

42 I beat them fine, like dust before the wind; I cast them out like the mire of the streets.

43 You delivered me from strife with the peoples; you made me head of the nations; people whom I had not known served me.

44 As soon as they heard of me they obeyed me; foreigners came cringing to me.
