40 For You have (A)armed me with strength for the battle;
You have [a]subdued under me (B)those who rose against me.
41 You have also [b]given me the (C)necks of my enemies,
So that I destroyed those who hated me.
42 They looked, but there was none to save;
Even (D)to the Lord, but He did not answer them.
43 Then I beat them as fine (E)as the dust of the earth;
I trod them (F)like dirt in the streets,
And I [c]spread them out.

44 “You(G) have also delivered me from the [d]strivings of my people;
You have kept me as the (H)head of the nations.
(I)A people I have not known shall serve me.
45 The foreigners submit to me;
As soon as they hear, they obey me.
46 The foreigners fade away,
And [e]come frightened (J)from their hideouts.

Blessed be my Rock!
