2 Samuel 22:39 - Forerunner Commentary

2 Samuel 22:39

37 You ^aenlarged my path under me;
So my feet did not slip.

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

39 And I have destroyed them and wounded them,
So that they could not rise;
They have fallen ^aunder my feet.

40 For You have¹ ^aarmed me with strength for the battle;
You have subdued under me ^bthose who rose against me.

41 You have also¹ given me the ^anecks of my enemies,
So that I destroyed those who hated me.

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.
