Psalms 18 — Context

39

You give me strength for battle; you make my foes kneel before me.

40

You make my enemies retreat; I destroy those who hate me.

41

They cry out, but there is no one to help them; they cry out to the LORD, but he does not answer them.

42

I grind them as fine windblown dust; I beat them underfoot like clay in the streets.

43

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.

44

When they hear of my exploits, they submit to me. Foreigners are powerless before me;

45

foreigners lose their courage; they shake with fear as they leave their strongholds.
