31
[As for] God, his way [is] perfect; the word of the LORD [is] tried: he [is] a buckler to all them that trust in him.
32
For who [is] God, save the LORD? and who [is] a rock, save our God?
33
God [is] my strength [and] power: and he maketh my way perfect.
34
He maketh my feet like hinds' [feet]: and setteth me upon my high places.
35
He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by my arms.
36
Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great.
37
Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet have not slipped.
38
I have pursued my enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them.
39
And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they have fallen under my feet.
40
For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against me hast thou subdued under me.
41
Thou hast also given me the necks of my enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me.
42
They looked, but [there was] none to save; [even] to the LORD, but he answered them not.
43
Then I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I stamped them as the mire of the street, [and] spread them abroad.
44
Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, thou hast kept me [to be] head of the heathen: a people [which] I knew not shall serve me.
45
Strangers shall submit themselves to me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient to me.
46
Strangers shall fade away, and they shall tremble from their close places.
47
The LORD liveth; and blessed [be] my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.
48
It [is] God that avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me,
49
And that bringeth me forth from my enemies: thou also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
50
Therefore I will give thanks to thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and I will sing praises to thy name.
51
[He is] the tower of salvation for his king: and [he] showeth mercy to his anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore.
