29. For you, O Yahweh are my lamp, and Yahweh lightens my darkness.
30. For by you I can run a raid; by my God I can leap over a wall.
31. This God, his way is blameless; the promise of Yahweh is flawless. He is a shield to all who take refuge in him.
32. For who is God apart from Yahweh? And who is a rock apart from our God?
33. God is my strong refuge, he has fully opened my way.
34. He makes my feet like a doe deer, and on my high places he has set me.
35. He trains my hands for the war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
36. You have given me the shield of your salvation; your willingness to help has made me great.
37. You have broadened my steps beneath me; my ankles have not wobbled.
38. I pursued those who hate me, and I destroyed them. I did not turn back until finishing them.
39. I wiped them out and I smashed them; they did not get up; they fell under my feet.
40. You have girded me with physical strength for the battle; you caused those who rose up against me to kneel under me.
41. My enemies you cause to retreat from me; I destroy those who hate me.
42. They looked out, but there was no deliverer, even to Yahweh, but he did not answer them.
43. I beat them fine, like the dust of the earth; like the mire of the streets, I crushed them, I stamped them down.
44. You delivered me from the strife of my people; you preserved me as the head of the nations. A people I had not known served me.
