Psalm 18:34-46 - Heartlight

³⁴He trains my hands for battle;

my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

³⁵You have given me Your shield of salvation;

Your right hand upholds me,

and Your gentleness exalts me.

³⁶You broaden the path beneath me

so that my ankles do not give way.

³⁷I pursued my enemies and overtook them;

I did not turn back until they were consumed.

³⁸I crushed them so they could not rise;

they have fallen under my feet.

³⁹You have armed me with strength for battle;

You have subdued my foes beneath me.

⁴⁰You have made my enemies retreat before me;

I put an end to those who hated me.

⁴¹They cried for help, but there was no one to save them —

to the LORD, but He did not answer.

⁴²I ground them as dust in the face of the wind;

I trampled them like mud in the streets.

⁴³You have delivered me from the strife of the people;

You have made me the head of nations;

a people I had not known shall serve me.

⁴⁴When they hear me, they obey me;

foreigners cower before me.

⁴⁵Foreigners lose heart

and come trembling from their strongholds.

⁴⁶The LORD lives, and blessed be my Rock!

And may the God of my salvation be exalted—

— Psalm 18:34-46
