2 Samuel 22:45
Verse 45 of 51. The 22nd of 24 chapters in 2 Samuel, in History.
41You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.
42They looked, but there was no one to save; even to the LORD, but he didn’t answer them.
43Then I beat them as small as the dust of the earth. I crushed them as the mire of the streets, and spread them abroad.
44You also have delivered me from the strivings of my people. You have kept me to be the head of the nations. A people whom I have not known will serve me.
45The foreigners will submit themselves to me. As soon as they hear of me, they will obey me.
46The foreigners will fade away, and will come trembling out of their close places.
47The LORD lives! Blessed be my rock! Exalted be God, the rock of my salvation,
48even the God who executes vengeance for me, who brings down peoples under me,
49who brings me away from my enemies. Yes, you lift me up above those who rise up against me. You deliver me from the violent man.
