Psalm 18:34-46
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
34 He trains my hands for war,
so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.(A)
35 You have given me the shield of your salvation,
and your right hand has supported me;
your help[a] has made me great.
36 You gave me a wide place for my steps under me,
and my feet did not slip.
37 I pursued my enemies and overtook them
and did not turn back until they were consumed.(B)
38 I struck them down so that they were unable to rise;
they fell under my feet.(C)
39 For you girded me with strength for the battle;
you made my assailants sink under me.(D)
40 You made my enemies turn their backs to me,
and those who hated me I destroyed.(E)
41 They cried for help, but there was no one to save them;
they cried to the Lord, but he did not answer them.(F)
42 I beat them fine, like dust before the wind;
I cast them out like the mire of the streets.(G)
43 You delivered me from strife with the peoples;[b]
you made me head of the nations;
people whom I had not known served me.(H)
44 As soon as they heard of me, they obeyed me;
foreigners came cringing to me.
45 Foreigners lost heart
and came trembling out of their strongholds.(I)
46 The Lord lives! Blessed be my rock,

your help has made me great.
36 You provide a broad path(C) for my feet,
so that my ankles do not give way.(D)
37 I pursued my enemies(E) and overtook them;
I did not turn back till they were destroyed.
38 I crushed them(F) so that they could not rise;(G)
they fell beneath my feet.(H)
39 You armed me with strength(I) for battle;
you humbled my adversaries(J) before me.
40 You made my enemies turn their backs(K) in flight,
and I destroyed(L) my foes.
41 They cried for help, but there was no one to save them(M)—
to the Lord, but he did not answer.(N)
42 I beat them as fine as windblown dust;(O)
I trampled them[a] like mud in the streets.
43 You have delivered me from the attacks of the people;
you have made me the head of nations.(P)
People I did not know(Q) now serve me,
44 foreigners(R) cower before me;
as soon as they hear of me, they obey me.
45 They all lose heart;(S)
they come trembling(T) from their strongholds.(U)

Psalm 18:34-46
King James Version
34 He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.
35 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great.
36 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.
37 I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I turn again till they were consumed.
38 I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen under my feet.
39 For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.
40 Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me.
41 They cried, but there was none to save them: even unto the Lord, but he answered them not.
42 Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets.
43 Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; and thou hast made me the head of the heathen: a people whom I have not known shall serve me.
44 As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.
45 The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.
46 The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted.
