New Testament

2 Samuel 22:35-44 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

35. He trains my hands for war; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

36. You have given me the shield of Your salvation; Your help exalts me.

37. You widen a place beneath me for my steps,and my ankles do not give way.

38. I pursue my enemies and destroy them;I do not turn back until they are wiped out.

39. I wipe them out and crush them,and they do not rise;they fall beneath my feet.

40. You have clothed me with strength for battle;You subdue my adversaries beneath me.

41. You have made my enemies retreat before me; I annihilate those who hate me.

42. They look, but there is no one to save them —they look to the Lord, but He does not answer them.

43. I pulverize them like dust of the earth;I crush them and trample them like mud in the streets.

44. You have freed me from the feuds among my people; You have appointed me the head of nations;a people I had not known serve me.
