37 I pursue my enemies and overtake them;
I do not turn back until they are wiped out.(A)
38 I crush them, and they cannot get up;
they fall beneath my feet.(B)
39 You have clothed me with strength for battle;(C)
you subdue my adversaries beneath me.(D)
40 You have made my enemies retreat before me;[a](E)
I annihilate those who hate me.(F)
41 They cry for help, but there is no one to save them(G)
they cry to the Lord, but he does not answer them.(H)
42 I pulverize them like dust before the wind;(I)
I trample them[b] like mud in the streets.(J)
