New Testament

2 Samuel 22:37-47 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

37. You will enlarge my steps under me, and my ankles will not fail.

38. I will pursue my enemies, and crush them. And I will not turn back, until I consume them.

39. I will consume them and break them apart, so that they cannot rise up; they will fall under my feet.

40. You have girded me with strength for the battle. Those who resisted me, you have bent down under me.

41. You have caused my enemies to turn their back to me; they have hatred for me, and I shall destroy them.

42. They will cry out, and there will be no one to save; to the Lord, and he will not heed them.

43. I will wipe them away like the dust of the earth. I will break them apart and crush them, like the mud of the streets.

44. You will save me from the contradictions of my people. You will preserve me to be the head of the Gentiles; a people I do not know shall serve me.

45. The sons of foreigners, who will resist me, at the hearing of the ear they will be obedient to me.

46. The foreigners flowed away, but they will be drawn together in their anguishes.

47. The Lord lives, and my God is blessed. And the strong God of my salvation shall be exalted.
