Psalms 18:40-50

40You have also madeH5414 my enemiesH340 1turnH5414 their backsH6203 to me, And I 23destroyedH6789 those who hatedH8130 me.41They criedH7768 for helpH7768, but thereH369 was 4noneH369 to saveH3467, Even to the LordH3068, but 5He did not answerH6030 them.42Then I beatH7833 them fineH7833 as the 6dustH6083 beforeH5921H6440 the windH7307; I emptiedH7385 them out as the mireH2916 of the streetsH2351.

43You have deliveredH6403 me from the 7contentionsH7379 of the peopleH5971; You have placedH7760 me as 8headH7218 of the nationsH1471; A 9peopleH5971 whom I have not knownH3045 serveH5647 me.44As soon as they hearH8088H241, they obeyH8085 me; ForeignersH1121H5236 1011submitH3584 to me.45ForeignersH1121H5236 12fadeH5034 awayH5034, And 13comeH2727 tremblingH2727 out of their 14fortressesH4526.

46The LordH3068 15livesH2416, and blessedH1288 be 16my rockH6697; And exaltedH7311 be 17the GodH430 of my salvationH3468,47The GodH410 who 18executesH5414 vengeanceH5360 for me, And 19subduesH1696 peoplesH5971 underH8478 me.48He 20deliversH6403 me from my enemiesH340; SurelyH637 You 21liftH7311 me aboveH4480 those who riseH6965 up against me; You rescueH5337 me from the 22violentH2555 manH376.49ThereforeH5921H3651 I will 23giveH3034 thanksH3034 to You among the nationsH1471, O LordH3068, And I will 24singH2167 praisesH2167 to Your nameH8034.50He gives greatH1431 2526deliveranceH3444 to His kingH4428, And showsH6213 lovingkindnessH2617 to 27His anointedH4899, To DavidH1732 and 28his 29descendantsH2233 foreverH5704H5769.
