36. You have made a wide path for my feetto keep them from slipping.
37. I chased my enemies and caught them;I did not stop until they were conquered.
38. I struck them down so they could not get up;they fell beneath my feet.
39. You have armed me with strength for the battle;you have subdued my enemies under my feet.
40. You placed my foot on their necks.I have destroyed all who hated me.
41. They called for help, but no one came to their rescue.They even cried to the lord, but he refused to answer.
42. I ground them as fine as dust in the wind.I swept them into the gutter like dirt.
43. You gave me victory over my accusers.You appointed me ruler over nations;people I don’t even know now serve me.
44. As soon as they hear of me, they submit;foreign nations cringe before me.
45. They all lose their courageand come trembling from their strongholds.
46. The lord lives! Praise to my Rock!May the God of my salvation be exalted!
