Bible verse
Foreigners cower before me; when they hear me, they obey me.
2 Samuel 22:45 · BSB
The verses around it, from 2 Samuel 22.
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.
46 Foreigners lose heart and come trembling from their strongholds.
47 The LORD lives, and blessed be my Rock! And may God, the Rock of my salvation, be exalted—
48 the God who avenges me and brings down nations beneath me,
49 who frees me from my enemies. You exalt me above my foes; You rescue me from violent men.
