38 Je poursuis mes ennemis, et je les détruis; Je ne reviens pas avant de les avoir anéantis.

39 Je les anéantis, je les brise, et ils ne se relèvent plus; Ils tombent sous mes pieds.

40 Tu me ceins de force pour le combat, Tu fais plier sous moi mes adversaires.

41 Tu fais tourner le dos à mes ennemis devant moi, Et j’extermine ceux qui me haïssent.

42 Ils regardent autour d’eux, et personne pour les sauver! Ils crient à l’Éternel, et il ne leur répond pas!
