Psalms 18:43

⁴¹ They cried for help, but there was no one to save them— to the LORD, but He did not answer.

⁴² I ground them as dust in the face of the wind; I trampled them like mud in the streets.

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.

⁴⁵ Foreigners lose heart and come trembling from their strongholds.
