33. God is my strong fortress: and he guideth the perfect in his way.
34. He maketh his feet like hinds' feet: and setteth me upon my high places.
35. He teacheth my hands to war; so that mine arms do bend a bow of brass.
36. Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great.
37. Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, and my feet have not slipped.
38. I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; neither did I turn again till they were consumed.
39. And I have consumed them, and smitten them through, that they cannot arise; yea, they are fallen under my feet.
40. For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.
41. Thou hast also made mine enemies turn their backs unto me, that I might cut off them that hate me.
42. They looked, but there was none to save; even unto the Lord, but he answered them not.
43. Then did I beat them small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as the mire of the streets, and did spread them abroad.
44. Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people; thou hast kept me to be the head of the nations: a people whom I have not known shall serve me.
45. The strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me.
46. The strangers shall fade away, and shall come trembling out of their close places.
47. The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation:
48. Even the God that executeth vengeance for me, and bringeth down peoples under me,
49. And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: yea, thou liftest me up above them that rise up against me: thou deliverest me from the violent man.
50. Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the nations, and will sing praises unto thy name.
