American Standard Version

2 Samuel 22:41-47 American Standard Version (ASV)

41. Thou hast also made mine enemies turn their backs unto me, That I might cut off them that hate me.

42. They looked, but there was none to save; Even unto Jehovah, but he answered them not.

43. Then did I beat them small as the dust of the earth, I did crush them as the mire of the streets, and did spread them abroad.

44. Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people; Thou hast kept me to be the head of the nations: A people whom I have not known shall serve me.

45. The foreigners shall submit themselves unto me: As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me.

46. The foreigners shall fade away, And shall come trembling out of their close places.

47. Jehovah liveth; And blessed be my rock; And exalted be God, the rock of my salvation,
