2 Samuel 22:29-46

29For thou art my lampH5216, O LORDH3068: and the LORDH3068 will lighten my darknessH2822.

30For by thee I runH7323 upon a troopH1416: by my GodH430 do I leapH1801 over a wallH7791.

31As for GodH410, his wayH1870 is perfectH8549: the wordH565 of the LORDH3068 is triedH6884; he is a shieldH4043 unto allH3605 them that trust in him.

32For who is GodH430, save the LORDH3068? and who is a rockH6697, save our GodH430?

33GodH410 is my strongH2428 fortressH4581: and he guideth the perfectH8549 in his wayH1870.

34He maketh his feetH7272 like hinds’H355 feetH7272: and setteth meH5921 uponH5921 my highH1116 placesH1116.

35He teacheth my handsH3027 to warH4421; soH3027 that mine armsH2220 doH3027 bendH5181 a bowH7198 of brass.

36Thou hast also givenH5414 meH5414 the shieldH4043 of thy salvationH3468: and thy gentleness hath madeH5414 meH5414 great.

37Thou hast enlargedH7337 my stepsH6806 underH8478 meH3808, and my feetH7166 have notH3808 slippedH4571.

38I have pursuedH7291 mine enemiesH341, and destroyedH8045 them; neitherH3808 didH3808 I turnH7725 againH7725 tillH5704 they were consumedH3615.

39And I have consumedH398 them, and smitten them throughH4272, that they cannotH3808 ariseH6965; yea, they are fallenH5307 underH8478 my feetH7272.

40For thou hast girdedH247 meH3766 with strengthH2428 unto the battleH4421: thou hast subduedH3766 underH8478 meH3766 those that roseH6965 upH6965 againstH4421 meH3766.

41Thou hast also madeH5414 mine enemiesH341 turnH5414 their backsH6203 unto meH5414, that I might cutH6789 offH5414 them that hateH8130 meH5414.

42They lookedH8159, but there was noneH369 to saveH3467; evenH3808 unto the LORDH3068, but he answeredH6030 them notH3808.

43Then did I beatH7833 them small as the dustH6083 of the earthH776, I did stampH7554 them as the mireH2916 of the streetsH2351, and did spreadH7554 them abroadH2351.

44Thou also hast deliveredH6403 meH8104 from the strivings of my peopleH5971; thou hast keptH8104 meH8104 to be the headH7218 of the nationsH1471: a peopleH5971 whom I have notH3808 knownH3045 shall serveH5647 meH8104.

45The strangers shall submitH3584 themselvesH8085 unto meH1121: as soon as they hearH8085 of meH1121, they shall obeyH8085 meH1121.

46The strangers shall fade awayH5034, and shall comeH2296 tremblingH2296 out of their close places.
