2 Samuel 22:42-51

22:42 They cry out, but there is no one to help them;

they cry out to the Lord, but he does not answer them.

22:43 I grind them as fine as the dust of the ground;

I crush them and stomp on them like clay in the streets.

22:44 You rescue me from a hostile army;

you preserve me as a leader of nations;

people over whom I had no authority are now my subjects.

22:45 Foreigners are powerless before me;

when they hear of my exploits, they submit to me.

22:46 Foreigners lose their courage;

they shake with fear as they leave their strongholds.

22:47 The Lord is alive!

My protector is praiseworthy!

The God who delivers me is exalted as king!

22:48 The one true God completely vindicates me;

he makes nations submit to me.

22:49 He delivers me from my enemies;

you snatch me away from those who attack me;

you rescue me from violent men.

22:50 So I will give you thanks, O Lord, before the nations!

I will sing praises to you.

22:51 He gives his chosen king magnificent victories;

he is faithful to his chosen ruler,

to David and to his descendants forever!”
