I will pursue my enemies, and overtake them.

I won’t turn away until they are consumed.

Selected verse

You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me,

that I might cut off those who hate me.

41

They cried, but there was no one to save;

even to the LORD, but he didn’t answer them.

42

Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind.

I cast them out as the mire of the streets.

43

You have delivered me from the strivings of the people.

You have made me the head of the nations.

A people whom I have not known shall serve me.
