40 Mine enemies necks thou gavest me, That I my haters might cut down:
41 They cried, but there was none to save, To God, but he would not them own.
41 They cry'd, but there was none to save, To God, but he would not them own.
42 I beat them then in pieces small, As dust before the wind that flies; And I did cast them out as dirt Which in the street despised lies
43 Thou savest me from the peoples strife, Madest me the heathens head to be; A people whom I have not known Shall subject servants be to me.
43 Thou sav'st me from the peoples strife, Made'st me the heathens head to be; A people whom I have not known Shall subject servants be to me.
