39 I wipe them out and crush them, and they do not rise; they fall beneath my feet.
40 You have clothed me with strength for battle; You subdue my adversaries beneath me.
41 You have made my enemies retreat before me; I annihilate those who hated me.
42 They look, but there is no one to save [them]- [they look] to the Lord, but He does not answer them.
