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.
51. Great deliverance giveth he to his king: and sheweth lovingkindness to his anointed, to David and to his seed, for evermore.
