39 For You clothed me with strength for the battle;You subdued under me those who rose up against me.
40 You gave me the necks of my enemies,and I destroyed those who hate me.
41 They cried for help, but there was none to save them;even to the Lord, but He did not answer them.
42 Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind;I cast them out as the dirt in the streets.
43 You have delivered me from the hostilities of the people,and You have made me the head of nations;a people whom I have not known serve me.
44 At hearing a report, they obey me;foreigners come cringing to me.
45 Foreigners fade away,and come quaking out of their prisons.
