2 Samuel 22:31-51

31 This God - how perfect are his deeds, how dependable his words! He is like a shield for all who seek his protection.

31 “As for God, his way is perfect: The LORD’s word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him.

32 The Lord alone is God; God alone is our defense.

32 For who is God besides the LORD? And who is the Rock except our God?

33 This God is my strong refuge; he makes my pathway safe.

33 It is God who arms me with strength and keeps my way secure.

34 He makes me sure-footed as a deer; he keeps me safe on the mountains.

34 He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he causes me to stand on the heights.

35 He trains me for battle, so that I can use the strongest bow.

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

36 O Lord, you protect me and save me; your help has made me great.

36 You make your saving help my shield; your help has made me great.

37 You have kept me from being captured, and I have never fallen.

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

38 I pursue my enemies and defeat them; I do not stop until I destroy them.

38 “I pursued my enemies and crushed them; I did not turn back till they were destroyed.

39 I strike them down, and they cannot rise; they lie defeated before me.

39 I crushed them completely, and they could not rise; they fell beneath my feet.

40 You give me strength for the battle and victory over my enemies.

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

41 You make my enemies run from me; I destroy those who hate me.

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

42 They look for help, but no one saves them; they call to the Lord, but he does not answer.

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

43 I crush them, and they become like dust; I trample on them like mud in the streets.

43 I beat them as fine as the dust of the earth; I pounded and trampled 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.

44 “You have delivered me from the attacks of the peoples; you have preserved me as the head of nations. People I did not know now serve me,

45 Foreigners bow before me; when they hear me, they obey.

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

46 They lose their courage and come trembling from their fortresses.

46 They all lose heart; they come trembling from their strongholds.

47 The Lord lives! Praise my defender! Proclaim the greatness of the strong God who saves me!

47 “The LORD lives! Praise be to my Rock! Exalted be my God, the Rock, my Savior!

48 He gives me victory over my enemies; he subdues the nations under me

48 He is the God who avenges me, who puts the nations under me,

49 and saves me from my foes. O Lord, you give me victory over my enemies and protect me from violent men.

49 who sets me free from my enemies. You exalted me above my foes; from a violent man you rescued me.

50 And so I praise you among the nations; I sing praises to you.

50 Therefore I will praise you, LORD, among the nations; I will sing the praises of your name.
