29. Indeed, with your help I can charge against an army;by my God’s power I can jump over a wall.
30. The one true God acts in a faithful manner;the Lord’s promise is reliable;he is a shield to all who take shelter in him.
31. Indeed, who is God besides the Lord?Who is a protector besides our God?
32. The one true God gives me strength;he removes the obstacles in my way.
33. He gives me the agility of a deer;he enables me to negotiate the rugged terrain.
34. He trains my hands for battle;my arms can bend even the strongest bow.
35. You give me your protective shield;your right hand supports me;your willingness to help enables me to prevail.
36. You widen my path;my feet do not slip.
37. I chase my enemies and catch them;I do not turn back until I wipe them out.
38. I beat them to death;they fall at my feet.
39. You give me strength for battle;you make my foes kneel before me.
40. You make my enemies retreat;I destroy those who hate me.
41. They cry out, but there is no one to help them;they cry out to the Lord, but he does not answer them.
42. I grind them as fine windblown dust;I beat them underfoot like clay in the streets.
43. You rescue me from a hostile army;you make me a leader of nations;people over whom I had no authority are now my subjects.
44. When they hear of my exploits, they submit to me.Foreigners are powerless before me;
45. foreigners lose their courage;they shake with fear as they leave their strongholds.
