Psalms 18:37 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 18:37

35 You have also given me the shield of Your salvation;
Your right hand has held me up,
Your gentleness has made me great.

36 You enlarged my path under me,
^aSo my feet did not slip.

37 I have pursued my enemies and overtaken them;
Neither did I turn back again till they were destroyed.

38 I have wounded them,
So that they could not rise;
They have fallen under my feet.

39 For You have¹ armed me with strength for the battle;
You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.

40 You have also given me the necks of my enemies,
So that I destroyed those who hated me.

41 They cried out, but there was none to save;
^aEven to the Lord, but He did not answer them.

42 Then I beat them as fine as the dust before the wind;
I ^acast them out like dirt in the streets.

43 You have delivered me from the strivings of the people;
^aYou have made me the head of the¹ nations;
^bA people I have not known shall serve me.

44 As soon as they hear of me they obey me;
The foreigners¹ submit to me.
