You have made my enemies retreat before me; I put an end to those who hated me.

39 You have armed me with strength for battle; You have subdued my foes beneath me.
40 You have made my enemies retreat before me; I put an end to those who hated me.
41 They cried for help, but there was no one to save them—to the LORD, but He did not answer.
