2 Samuel 22:31-38

New International Reader's Version

³¹ “God’s way is perfect.
    The Lord’s word doesn’t have any flaws.
He protects like a shield
    all who go to him for safety.
³² Who is God except the Lord?
    Who is the Rock except our God?
³³ God gives me strength for the battle.
    He keeps my way secure.
³⁴ He makes my feet like the feet of a deer.
    He causes me to stand on the highest places.
³⁵ He trains my hands to fight every battle.
    My arms can bend a bow of bronze.
³⁶ Lord, you shield me with your saving help.
    Your help has made me great.
³⁷ You give me a wide path to walk in
    so that I don’t twist my ankles.

³⁸ “I chased my enemies and crushed them.
    I didn’t turn back until they were destroyed.
