2 Samuel 22:31-43

31“As for God, his way is perfect: The LORD ’s word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him.

32For who is God besides the LORD ? And who is the Rock except our God?

33It is God who arms me with strength Dead Sea Scrolls, some Septuagint manuscripts, Vulgate and Syriac (see also Psalm 18:32); Masoretic Text who is my strong refuge and keeps my way secure.

34He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he causes me to stand on the heights.

35He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

36You make your saving help my shield; your help has made Dead Sea Scrolls; Masoretic Text shield; / you stoop down to make me great.

37You provide a broad path for my feet, so that my ankles do not give way.

38“I pursued my enemies and crushed them; I did not turn back till they were destroyed.

39I crushed them completely, and they could not rise; they fell beneath my feet.

40You armed me with strength for battle; you humbled my adversaries before me.

41You made my enemies turn their backs in flight, and I destroyed my foes.

42They cried for help, but there was no one to save them— to the LORD, but he did not answer.

43I beat them as fine as the dust of the earth; I pounded and trampled them like mud in the streets.
