45 The sons of the stranger dwindle away before me; As soon as they hear of me, they obey me. 46 The sons of the stranger fade away, And come halting out of their close places. 47 The LORD liveth, and blessed be my Rock; And exalted be the God, my Rock of salvation; 48 Even the God that executeth vengeance for me, And bringeth down peoples under me, 49 And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies; Yea, Thou liftest me up above them that rise up against me; Thou deliverest me from the violent man. 50 Therefore I will give thanks unto Thee, O LORD, among the nations, And will sing praises unto Thy name. 51 A tower of salvation is He to His king; And showeth mercy to His anointed, To David and to his seed, for evermore. 2 Samuel 22:45-51, JPS Tanakh 1917.
