And who is a rock, besides our God, <\/br><strong>32<\/strong> The God that girdeth me with strength, And maketh my way perfect? <\/br><strong>33<\/strong> He maketh my feet like hinds&#8217; `feet&#8217;: And setteth me upon my high places. <\/br><strong>34<\/strong> He teacheth my hands to war; So that mine arms do bend a bow of brass. <\/br><strong>35<\/strong> Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation; And thy right hand hath holden me up, And thy gentleness hath made me great. <\/br><strong>36<\/strong> Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, And my feet have not slipped. <\/br><strong>37<\/strong> I will pursue mine enemies, and overtake them; Neither will I turn again till they are consumed. <\/br><strong>38<\/strong> I will smite them through, so that they shall not be able to rise: They shall fall under my feet. <\/br><strong>39<\/strong> For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: Thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me. <\/br><strong>40<\/strong> Thou hast also made mine enemies turn their backs unto me, That I might cut off them that hate me. <\/br><strong>41<\/strong> They cried, but there was none to save; Even unto Jehovah, but he answered them not. <\/br><strong>42<\/strong> Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind; I did cast them out as the mire of the streets. <\/br><strong>43<\/strong> Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; Thou hast made me the head of the nations: A people whom I have not known shall serve me. <\/br><strong>44<\/strong> As soon as they hear of me they shall obey me; The foreigners shall submit themselves unto me. <\/br><strong>45<\/strong> The foreigners shall fade away, And shall come trembling out of their close places. <\/br><strong>46<\/strong> Jehovah liveth; and blessed be my rock; And exalted be the God of my salvation, <\/br><strong>47<\/strong> Even the God that executeth vengeance for me, And subdueth peoples under me. <\/br><strong>48<\/strong> He rescueth me from mine enemies; Yea, thou liftest me up above them that rise up against me; Thou deliverest me from the violent man. <\/br><strong>49<\/strong> Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O Jehovah, among the nations, And will sing praises unto thy name. <\/br><strong>50<\/strong> Great deliverance giveth he to his king, And showeth lovingkindness to his anointed, To David and to his seed, for evermore.
