Psalms 18:46
44 When they hear me, they obey me; foreigners cower before me.
45 Foreigners lose heart and come trembling from their strongholds.
The LORD lives, and blessed be my Rock! And may the God of my salvation be exalted—
47 the God who avenges me and subdues nations beneath me,
48 who delivers me from my enemies. You exalt me above my foes; You rescue me from violent men.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
