You rescued me from a squabbling people;
you made me a leader of nations.
People I’d never heard of served me;
the moment they got wind of me they submitted.
They gave up; they came trembling from their hideouts.

“You delivered me from strife with my people;
you kept me as the head of the nations;

as soon as they heard of me, they obeyed me.
Foreigners lost heart
and came trembling out of their fortresses.

They all lose heart;
they come trembling from their strongholds.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
You delivered me from the strife of my people;
you preserved me as the head of the nations.
A people I had not known served me.
Children of a foreign land came cringing to me;
when they heard of me, they became obedient to me.
Children of a foreign land lost heart
and came trembling from their strongholds.

KJV 1900King James Version
Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people,
Thou hast kept me to be head of the heathen:
A people which I knew not shall serve me.
Strangers shall submit themselves unto me:
As soon as they hear, they shall be obedient unto me.
Strangers shall fade away,
And they shall be afraid out of their close places.
