2 Samuel 22:44

42 They looked, but there was none to save;
Even ^ato the Lord, but He did not answer them.

43 Then I beat them as fine ^aas the dust of the earth;
I trod them ^blike dirt in the streets,
And I¹ spread them out.

44 “You^a have also delivered me from the¹ strivings of my people;
You have kept me as the ^bhead of the nations.
^cA people I have not known shall serve me.

45 The foreigners submit to me;
As soon as they hear, they obey me.

46 The foreigners fade away,
And¹ come frightened ^afrom their hideouts.

47 “The Lord lives!
Blessed be my Rock!
Let God be exalted,
The ^aRock of my salvation!

48 It is God who avenges me,
And ^asubdues the peoples under me;
