Bible verse
You have made my enemies retreat before me; I put an end to those who hated me.
2 Samuel 22:41 · BSB
The verses around it, from 2 Samuel 22.
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.
45 Foreigners cower before me; when they hear me, they obey me.
