2 Samuel 22:31-51

Revised Standard Version w/ Apocrypha RSVA

31 This God--his way is perfect; the promise of the LORD proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.

32 "For who is God, but the LORD? And who is a rock, except our God?

33 This God is my strong refuge, and has made my way safe.

34 He made my feet like hinds' feet, and set me secure on the heights.

35 He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

36 Thou hast given me the shield of thy salvation, and thy help made me great.

37 Thou didst give a wide place for my steps under me, and my feet did not slip;

38 I pursued my enemies and destroyed them, and did not turn back until they were consumed.

39 I consumed them; I thrust them through, so that they did not rise; they fell under my feet.

40 For thou didst gird me with strength for the battle; thou didst make my assailants sink under me.

41 Thou didst make my enemies turn their backs to me, those who hated me, and I destroyed them.

42 They looked, but there was none to save; they cried to the LORD, but he did not answer them.

43 I beat them fine as the dust of the earth, I crushed them and stamped them down like the mire of the streets.

44 "Thou didst deliver me from strife with the peoples; thou didst keep me as the head of the nations; people whom I had not known served me.

45 Foreigners came cringing to me; as soon as they heard of me, they obeyed me.

46 Foreigners lost heart, and came trembling out of their fastnesses.

47 "The LORD lives; and blessed be my rock, and exalted be my God, the rock of my salvation,

48 the God who gave me vengeance and brought down peoples under me,

49 who brought me out from my enemies; thou didst exalt me above my adversaries, thou didst deliver me from men of violence.

50 "For this I will extol thee, O LORD, among the nations, and sing praises to thy name.

51 Great triumphs he gives to his king, and shows steadfast love to his anointed, to David, and his descendants for ever."

New International Version NIV

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

43 I beat them as fine as the dust of the earth; I pounded and trampled them like mud in the streets.

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

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

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

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

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

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

51 “He gives his king great victories; he shows unfailing kindness to his anointed, to David and his descendants forever.”
