Psalm 18:34-44

34 He shows me how to fight; I can bend a bronze bow!

34 He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

35 You protect me with salvation-armor; you hold me up with a firm hand, caress me with your gentle ways.

35 You make your saving help my shield, and your right hand sustains me; your help has made me great.

36 You cleared the ground under me so my footing was firm.

36 You provide a broad path for my feet, so that my ankles do not give way.

37 When I chased my enemies I caught them; I didn't let go till they were dead men.

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

38 I nailed them; they were down for good; then I walked all over them.

38 I crushed them so that they could not rise; they fell beneath my feet.

39 You armed me well for this fight, you smashed the upstarts.

39 You armed me with strength for battle; you humbled my adversaries before me.

40 You made my enemies turn tail, and I wiped out the haters.

40 You made my enemies turn their backs in flight, and I destroyed my foes.

41 They cried "uncle" but Uncle didn't come; They yelled for God and got no for an answer.

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

42 I ground them to dust; they gusted in the wind. I threw them out, like garbage in the gutter.

42 I beat them as fine as windblown dust; I trampled them like mud in the streets.

43 You rescued me from a squabbling people; you made me a leader of nations. People I'd never heard of served me;

43 You have delivered me from the attacks of the people; you have made me the head of nations. People I did not know now serve me,

44 the moment they got wind of me they listened.

44 foreigners cower before me; as soon as they hear of me, they obey me.
