Psalm 18:29–42

²⁹For by thee I have ^||run through a troop;

And by my God have I leaped over a wall.

³⁰As for God, his way is perfect:

The word of the Lord is ^||tried:

He is a buckler to all those that trust in him.

³¹For who is God save the Lord?

Or who is a rock save our God?

³²It is God that ^mngirdeth me with strength,

And ⁿmaketh my way perfect.

³³He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet,

And setteth me upon my high places.

³⁴He teacheth my hands to war,

So that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.

³⁵Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation:

^oAnd thy right hand hath ^pholden me up,

And ^||thy gentleness hath made me great.

³⁶Thou hast enlarged my steps under me,

That ^†my feet did not slip.

³⁷I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them:

Neither did I turn again till they were consumed.

³⁸I have wounded them that they were not able to rise:

They are fallen under my feet.

³⁹For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle:

Thou hast ^†subdued under me those that rose up against me.

⁴⁰Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies;

That I might destroy them that hate me.

^41qThey cried, but there was none to save them:

Even unto the Lord, but he answered them not.

⁴²Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind:

I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets.
