Psalms 18:40 Context
38I haue wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen vnder my feete. 39For thou hast girded mee with strength vnto the battell: thou hast subdued vnder me, those that rose vp against me. 40Thou hast also giuen mee the neckes of mine enemies: that I might destroy them that hate me. 41They cried, but there was none to saue them: euen vnto the Lord, but he answered them not. 42Then did I beate them small as the dust before the winde: I did cast them out, as the dirt in the streetes.
