    and trampled them in my wrath;
their juice spattered on my garments,
    and I stained all my robes.(A)

32 The God who has girded me with strength
    and made my way safe.[a]
33 He made my feet like the feet of a deer
    and set me secure on the heights.(A)
34 He trains my hands for war,
    so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.(B)
35 You have given me the shield of your salvation,
    and your right hand has supported me;
    your help[b] 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.(C)
38 I struck them down so that they were unable to rise;
    they fell under my feet.(D)
39 For you girded me with strength for the battle;
    you made my assailants sink under me.(E)
40 You made my enemies turn their backs to me,
    and those who hated me I destroyed.(F)
41 They cried for help, but there was no one to save them;
    they cried to the Lord, but he did not answer them.(G)
42 I beat them fine, like dust before the wind;
    I cast them out like the mire of the streets.(H)
