Psalms 18:29-42
29For by You I can 1runH7323 at a 2troopH1416 ofH1416 warriorsH1416; And by my GodH430 I can 3leapH1801 over a wallH7791.
30As for GodH410, His wayH1870 is 45blamelessH8549; The 6wordH565 of the LordH3068 is refinedH6884; He is a 7shieldH4043 to allH3605 who takeH2620 refugeH2620 in Him.31For 8whoH4310 is GodH433, but the LordH3068? And whoH4310 is a 9rockH6697, exceptH2108 our GodH430,32The GodH410 who 10encirclesH247 me with strengthH2428, And 11makesH5414 my wayH1870 1213blamelessH8549?33He 14makesH7737 my feetH7272 like deer’sH355 feet, And 15setsH5975 me up on my highH1116 placesH1116.34He 16trainsH3925 my handsH3027 for battleH4421, So that my armsH2220 can 17bendH5181 a bowH7198 of bronzeH5154.35You have also givenH5414 me 18the shieldH4043 of Your salvationH3468, And Your 19rightH3225 handH3225 upholdsH5582 me; And 20Your 21gentlenessH6038 makesH7235 me greatH7235.36You 22enlargeH7337 my stepsH6806 underH8478 me, And my 2324feetH7166 have not slippedH4571.
37I 25pursuedH7291 my enemiesH340 and overtookH5381 them, And I did not turnH7725 backH7725 26untilH5704 they were consumedH3615.38I shatteredH4272 them, so that they wereH3201 27not ableH3201 to riseH6965; They fellH5307 28underH8478 my feetH7272.39For You have 29encircledH247 me with strengthH2428 for battleH4421; You have forced those who roseH6965 upH6965 against me 30to bowH3766 downH3766 underH8478 me.40You have also madeH5414 my enemiesH340 31turnH5414 their backsH6203 to me, And I 3233destroyedH6789 those who hatedH8130 me.41They criedH7768 forH7768 helpH7768, but thereH369 wasH369 34noH369 oneH369 to saveH3467, They cried to the LordH3068, but 35He did not answerH6030 them.42Then I beatH7833 them fineH7833 like the 36dustH6083 beforeH5921H6440 the windH7307; I emptiedH7385 them outH7385 like the mudH2916 of the streetsH2351.
