Context of 2 Samuel 22:43
41You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, And I destroyed those who hated me. 42They looked, but there was none to save; Even to the Lord, but He did not answer them. Then I pulverized them as the dust of the earth; I crushed and stamped them as the mire of the streets. 44You have also delivered me from the contentions of my people; You have kept me as head of the nations; A people whom I have not known serve me. 45Foreigners pretend obedience to me; As soon as they hear, they obey me.
