44. “You gave me victory over my accusers.You preserved me as the ruler over nations;people I don’t even know now serve me.
45. Foreign nations cringe before me;as soon as they hear of me, they submit.
46. They all lose their courageand come trembling from their strongholds.
47. “The lord lives! Praise to my Rock!May God, the Rock of my salvation, be exalted!
48. He is the God who pays back those who harm me;he brings down the nations under me
49. and delivers me from my enemies.You hold me safe beyond the reach of my enemies;you save me from violent opponents.
50. For this, O lord, I will praise you among the nations;I will sing praises to your name.
51. You give great victories to your king;you show unfailing love to your anointed,to David and all his descendants forever.”
