NET Bible
"You make my enemies retreat; I destroy those who hate me."
— Psalms 18:40, NET Bible
“Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me.”
“Thou hast also made mine enemies turn their backs unto me, That I might cut off them that hate me. ”
“You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.”
“By you their backs are turned in flight, so that my haters are cut off.”
“Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me.”
I chase my enemies and catch them; I do not turn back until I wipe them out.
I beat them to death; they fall at my feet.
You give me strength for battle; you make my foes kneel before me.
You make my enemies retreat; I destroy those who hate me.
They cry out, but there is no one to help them; they cry out to the LORD, but he does not answer them.
I grind them as fine windblown dust; I beat them underfoot like clay in the streets.
You rescue me from a hostile army; you make me a leader of nations; people over whom I had no authority are now my subjects.
