Bible verse
You have armed me with strength for battle; You have subdued my foes beneath me.
2 Samuel 22:40 · BSB
The verses around it, from 2 Samuel 22.
36 You have given me Your shield of salvation, and Your gentleness exalts me.
37 You broaden the path beneath me so that my ankles do not give way.
38 I pursued my enemies and destroyed them; I did not turn back until they were consumed.
39 I devoured and crushed them so they could not rise; they have fallen under my feet.
40 You have armed me with strength for battle; You have subdued my foes beneath me.
41 You have made my enemies retreat before me; I put an end to those who hated me.
42 They looked, but there was no one to save them—to the LORD, but He did not answer.
43 I ground them as the dust of the earth; I crushed and trampled them like mud in the streets.
44 You have delivered me from the strife of my people; You have preserved me as the head of nations; a people I had not known shall serve me.
