39. For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.
40. Thou hast also given me the necks of my enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me.
41. They cried, but there was none to save them: even to the LORD, but he answered them not.
42. Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I cast them out as the dirt in the streets.
43. Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; and thou hast made me the head of the heathen: 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 to me.
45. The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid from their close places.
