43. I ground them to dust before the wind;I left them like mud in the streets.
44. You rescued me from the strife of peoples;you made me head over nations.A people I had not known served me;
45. as soon as they heard of me they obeyed.Foreigners submitted before me;
46. foreigners cringed;they came cowering from their dungeons.
47. The Lord lives! Blessed be my rock!Exalted be God, my savior!
48. O God who granted me vengeance,made peoples subject to me,
49. and saved me from my enemies,Truly you have elevated me above my opponents,from a man of lawlessness you have rescued me.
50. Thus I will praise you, Lord, among the nations;I will sing praises to your name.
51. You have given great victories to your king,and shown mercy to his anointed,to David and his posterity forever.
