26. with the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; and with the perverse thou wilt show thyself adversary.
27. Therefore thou wilt save the humble people; but wilt bring down high looks.
28. For thou wilt light my fire: the Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.
29. For with thee I have scattered armies; and in my God I have overcome walled defenses.
30. As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is precise: a shield to all those that wait in him.
31. For who is God except the Lord? or who is a refuge except our God?
32. It is God that girds me with strength and makes my way perfect.
33. He makes my feet like hinds’ feet and sets me upon my high places.
34. He trains my hands for the battle, so that a bow of bronze shall be broken by my arms.
35. In the same manner thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand will hold me up, and thy meekness shall multiply me.
36. Thou shall enlarge my steps under me, and my knees shall not tremble.
37. I shall pursue my enemies and overtake them: neither shall I turn again until they are consumed.
38. I shall smite them, and they will not be able to rise: they shall fall under my feet.
39. For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued my enemies under me.
40. Thou hast also given me the necks of my enemies that I might destroy those that hate me.
41. They cried out, but there was no one to save them: even unto the Lord, but he did not answer them.
42. Then I beat them as small as the dust before the wind: I scattered them as the dirt in the streets.
43. Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; and thou hast made me the head of the Gentiles: a people whom I did not know served me.
44. As soon as they heard of me, they obeyed me: the sons of strangers submitted themselves unto me even against their will.
45. The strangers fell away and were afraid in their close places.
46. The Lord lives; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted.
