New Testament

Psalms 18:42-50 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

42. Then I beat them fine as the dust before the wind; I emptied them out as the mire of the streets.

43. You have delivered me from the contentions of the people; You have placed me as head of the nations; A people whom I have not known serve me.

44. As soon as they hear, they obey me; Foreigners submit to me.

45. Foreigners fade away, And come trembling out of their fortresses.

46. The Lord lives, and blessed be my rock; And exalted be the God of my salvation,

47. The God who executes vengeance for me, And subdues peoples under me.

48. He delivers me from my enemies; Surely You lift me above those who rise up against me; You rescue me from the violent man.

49. Therefore I will give thanks to You among the nations, O Lord, And I will sing praises to Your name.

50. He gives great deliverance to His king, And shows lovingkindness to His anointed, To David and his descendants forever.
