2 Samuel 22:40 In-Context

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

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

40 For you girded me with strength for the battle; you made my assailants sink under me.

41 You made my enemies turn their backs to me, those who hated me, and I destroyed them.

42 They looked, but there was no one to save them; they cried to the Lord, but he did not answer them.
