2 Samuel 22:29-47 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

29. For thou art my lamp, O Lord, and the Lord gives light unto my darkness.

30. For in thee I have run through a troop; with my God I have gone over the walls.

31. As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is purified; he is a shield to all those that trust in him.

32. For what God is there except the Lord? Or who is a Strong One, except our God?

33. God is he who strengthens me with virtue; he who clears my way;

34. he who makes my feet like hinds’ feet, and he who sets me upon my high places;

35. he who trains my hands for war and causes my arms to break the bow of bronze.

36. Thou hast also given me the shield of thy saving health, and thy meekness has multiplied me.

37. Thou hast enlarged my steps under me so that my knees did not shake.

38. I have pursued my enemies and destroyed them and did not return until I had consumed them.

39. And I consumed them and wounded them, and they did not arise; they are fallen under my feet.

40. For thou hast girded me with strength for the battle; thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.

41. Thou hast given me the necks of my enemies, of those that hate me, that I might cut them off.

42. They looked, but there was no one to save them; even unto the Lord, but he did not answer them.

43. Then I beat them as small as the dust of the earth; I stamped them as the mire of the street and spread them abroad.

44. Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of peoples; thou hast kept me to be head of the Gentiles; peoples whom I did not know have served me.

45. The strangers trembled before my command; as soon as they heard, they obeyed me.

46. The strangers withered away and trembled in their close places.

47. The Lord lives, and blessed be my rock, and exalted be the God who is the rock of my salvation.
