Psalms 18:42

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.

I ground them as dust in the face of the wind; I trampled them like mud in the streets.

43 You have delivered me from the strife of the people; You have made me the head of nations; a people I had not known shall serve me.

44 When they hear me, they obey me; foreigners cower before me.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
