    Open

    32It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.

    33He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet, and setteth me upon my high places.

    34He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.

    35Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great.

    36Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.

    37I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I turn again till they were consumed.

    38I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen under my feet.

    39For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.

    40Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me.

    41They cried, but there was none to save them: even unto the Lord, but he answered them not.

    42Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets.

    43Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; and thou hast made me the head of the heathen: a people whom I have not known shall serve me.

    44As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.

    45The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.

    46The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted.

    47It is God that avengeth me, and subdueth the people under me.

    48He delivereth me from mine enemies: yea, thou liftest me up above those that rise up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.

    49Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the heathen, and sing praises unto thy name.

    50Great deliverance giveth he to his king; and sheweth mercy to his anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore.

    3Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
