35. You have also given me the shield of Your salvation, And Your right hand upholds me; And Your gentleness makes me great.
36. You enlarge my steps under me, And my feet have not slipped.
37. I pursued my enemies and overtook them, And I did not turn back until they were consumed.
38. I shattered them, so that they were not able to rise; They fell under my feet.
39. For You have girded me with strength for battle; You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.
40. You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, And I destroyed those who hated me.
41. They cried for help, but there was none to save, Even to the Lord, but He did not answer them.
42. Then I beat them fine as the dust before the wind; I emptied them out as the mire of the streets.
43. You have delivered me from the contentions of the people; You have placed me as head of the nations; A people whom I have not known serve me.
44. As soon as they hear, they obey me; Foreigners submit to me.
45. Foreigners fade away, And come trembling out of their fortresses.
46. The Lord lives, and blessed be my rock; And exalted be the God of my salvation,
47. The God who executes vengeance for me, And subdues peoples under me.
48. He delivers me from my enemies; Surely You lift me above those who rise up against me; You rescue me from the violent man.
49. Therefore I will give thanks to You among the nations, O Lord, And I will sing praises to Your name.
50. He gives great deliverance to His king, And shows lovingkindness to His anointed, To David and his descendants forever.
