40 You have also given me the necks of my enemies,So that I destroyed those who hated me.
41 They cried out, but there was none to save;Even to the Lord, but He did not answer them.
42 Then I beat them as fine as the dust before the wind;I cast them out like dirt in the streets.
43 You have delivered me from the strivings of the people;You have made me the head of the nations;A people I have not known shall serve me.
44 As soon as they hear of me they obey me;The foreigners submit to me.
45 The foreigners fade away,And come frightened from their hideouts.
46 The Lord lives!Blessed be my Rock!Let the God of my salvation be exalted.
