27. For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but the haughty eyes thou wilt bring down.
28. For thou wilt light my lamp: the Lord my God will lighten my darkness.
29. For by thee I run upon a troop; and by my God do I leap over a wall.
30. As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried; he is a shield unto all them that trust in him.
31. For who is God, save the Lord? and who is a rock, beside our God?
32. The God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.
33. He maketh my feet like hinds' feet: and setteth me upon my high places,
34. He teacheth my hands to war; so that mine arms do bend a bow of brass.
35. Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great.
36. Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, and my feet have not slipped.
37. I will pursue mine enemies, and overtake them: neither will I turn again till they are consumed.
38. I will smite them through that they shall not be able to rise: they shall fall under my feet.
39. For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.
40. Thou hast also made mine enemies turn their backs unto me, that I might cut off them that hate me.
41. They cried, but there was none to save: even unto the Lord, but he answered them not.
42. Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast them out as the mire of the streets.
43. Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; thou hast made me the head of the nations: a people whom I have not known shall serve me.
44. As soon as they hear of me they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.
