2 Samuel 22:40 In-Context

38 I have pursued my enemies and destroyed them and did not return until I had consumed them.

39 And I consumed them and wounded them, and they did not arise; they are fallen under my feet.

40 For thou hast girded me with strength for the battle; thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.

41 Thou hast given me the necks of my enemies, of those that hate me, that I might cut them off.

42 They looked, but there was no one to save them; even unto the LORD, but he did not answer them.
