44 You delivered me from civil war among my own people. You preserved me as head of the nations. People whom I had never known served me! 45 Foreigners came cringing to me; they obeyed as soon as they heard me. 46 Foreigners lost their courage, coming trembling from their strongholds. 47 The LORD lives! Blessed be my Rock, and may my God be exalted, the Rock who is my salvation! 48 The God who keeps on avenging me, subjugating people beneath me, 49 delivering me from my enemies. You exalted me above those who rebelled against me, delivering me from violent men. 50 Because of all of this I will praise you among the nations, LORD, and I will sing praises to your name! 51 Great is the salvation he brings to his king, showing gracious love to his anointed, to David and to his offspring forever. 2 Samuel 22:44-51, Intl.
