2 Samuel 22:40

“For you have armed me with strength for the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.”

Verse in context — 2 Samuel 22

I have pursued my enemies and destroyed them. I didn't turn again until they were consumed.

I have consumed them, and struck them through, so that they can't arise. Yes, they have fallen under my feet.

For you have armed me with strength for the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.

You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.

They looked, but there was none to save; even to Yahweh, but he didn't answer them.

David’s reign as king, his triumphs and failures, and God’s covenant with him.
