Context of 2 Samuel 22:48

46Strangers have faded away, And they come trembling forth from their close places. 47Jehovah liveth; and blessed be my rock; And exalted be the God, the rock of my salvation, The God who hath avenged me, And hath brought the peoples under me. 49He brought me forth from mine enemies: Yea, thou hast lifted me up above them that rose up against me; From the man of violence hast thou delivered me. 50Therefore will I give thanks to thee, Jehovah, among the nations, And will sing psalms to thy name.
