Psalm 18:42 Context

◄ Psalm 18:42 ►

I ground them as dust in the face of the wind; I trampled them like mud in the streets.

Context

42Then I beat them fine as the dust before the wind;
I emptied them out as the mire of the streets.

43You have delivered me from the contentions of the people;
You have placed me as head of the nations;
A people whom I have not known serve me.

44As soon as they hear, they obey me;
Foreigners submit to me.

45Foreigners fade away,
And come trembling out of their fortresses.

46The LORD lives, and blessed be my rock;
And exalted be the God of my salvation,

47The God who executes vengeance for me,
And subdues peoples under me.

48He delivers me from my enemies;
Surely You lift me above those who rise up against me;
You rescue me from the violent man.

49Therefore I will give thanks to You among the nations, O LORD,
And I will sing praises to Your name.

50He gives great deliverance to His king,
And shows lovingkindness to His anointed,
To David and his descendants forever.
