New Testament

2 Samuel 22:34-49 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

34. He makes his feet like hinds’ feet,and sets me on my high places.

35. He teaches my hands to war,so that my arms bend a bow of bronze.

36. You have also given me the shield of your salvation.Your gentleness has made me great.

37. You have enlarged my steps under me.My feet have not slipped.

38. I have pursued my enemies and destroyed them.I didn’t turn again until they were consumed.

39. I have consumed them,and struck them through,so that they can’t arise.Yes, they have fallen under my feet.

40. For you have armed me with strength for the battle.You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.

41. You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me,that I might cut off those who hate me.

42. They looked, but there was no one to save;even to the Lord, but he didn’t answer them.

43. Then I beat them as small as the dust of the earth.I crushed them as the mire of the streets, and spread them abroad.

44. You also have delivered me from the strivings of my people.You have kept me to be the head of the nations.A people whom I have not known will serve me.

45. The foreigners will submit themselves to me.As soon as they hear of me, they will obey me.

46. The foreigners will fade away,and will come trembling out of their close places.

47. The Lord lives!Blessed be my rock!Exalted be God, the rock of my salvation,

48. even the God who executes vengeance for me,who brings down peoples under me,

49. who brings me away from my enemies.Yes, you lift me up above those who rise up against me.You deliver me from the violent man.
