37 I (A)pursued my enemies and overtook them,
And I did not turn back (B)until they were consumed.
38 I crushed them, so that they were (C)not able to rise;
They fell (D)under my feet.
39 For You have (E)girded me with strength for battle;
You have [a](F)subdued under me those who rose up against me.
40 [b]You have also made my enemies (G)turn their backs to me,
And I [c](H)destroyed those who hated me.
41 They cried for help, but there was (I)none to save,
Even to Yahweh, but (J)He did not answer them.
42 Then I beat them fine as the (K)dust before the wind;
I emptied them out as the mire of the streets.
