41 You caused my enemies to retreat from me;I destroyed those who hated me.
42 They looked, but there was no one to save them,to the Lord, but He did not respond.
43 I crushed them like the dust of the land,like the mud of the streets, I ground them and stamped them down.
44 You have also delivered me from the strivings of my people;You have kept me as the head of the nations.A people whom I have not known will serve me.
45 Foreigners submit to me, cringing;as soon as they hear, they obey me.
46 Foreigners lose heart;they gird themselves as they leave their fortresses.
47 The Lord lives; blessed be my rock.May the God of the rock of my salvation be exalted,
