Psalms 18:40-50

CLV(i) 40 As for my enemies, You gave to me the scruff of their necks, And those hating me, I effaced them." 41 They implored, yet there was no salvation; They called to Yahweh, yet He would not answer them." 42 I reduced them to powder like the soil before the face of the wind; Like the mud of the streets I pulverized them. 43 You delivered me from the disputes of the people; You placed me at the head of the nations. A people I had not known, they serve me;" 44 As soon as the ear is hearing they hearken to me. The sons of the foreigner, they cower before me;" 45 The sons of the foreigner, they disintegrate, And they come cringing from their enclosures." 46 Alive is Yahweh, and being blessed is my Rock; Let the Elohim of my salvation be exalted." 47 He is the One, El, Who is rendering vengeance for me, And He subdues the peoples under me, 48 The One delivering me from my enemies. Indeed from those rising against me have You safely set me high; From the man of violence have You rescued me. 49 Therefore, I shall acclaim You among the nations, O Yahweh, And to Your Name shall I make melody." 50 He is the One magnifying the salvations of His king, And showing benignity to His anointed, To David, and to his seed for the eon. {Permanent{ "
