024) (4)

(4) 43 And thou from the contentions hast of the people me set free; thou of the heathen mad’st me head: people I knew not shall serve me.

44 They’ll at first hearing me obey: strangers shall yield themselves to me.

45 The strangers shall consume away, and from their closets frighted be.

46 The Lord lives, and blest be my Rock, let my health’s God exalted be.

47 It’s God for me that vengeance works, and brings down people under me.

48 Me from mine enemies he doth save: and above those that ‘gainst me went, thou lift’st me up; and thou hast freed me from the man that’s violent.

49 I with confession will therefore unto thee render thanksgiving, o Lord, among the heathen-folk; and to thy name I’ll praise sing.

50 He giveth great deliverance to his King, and doth shew mercy to his anointed, to David, and to his seed eternally.
