In context
39 I have sent destruction on them and given them wounds, so that they are not able to get up: they are stretched under my feet.
40 For I have been armed by you with strength for the fight: you have made low under me those who came out against me.
41 By you their backs are turned in flight, so that my haters are cut off.
42 They were crying out, but there was no one to come to their help: even to the Lord, but he gave them no answer.
43 Then they were crushed as small as the dust of the earth, stamped down under my feet like the waste of the streets.
44 You have made me free from the fightings of my people; you have made me the head of the nations: a people of whom I had no knowledge will be my servants.
45 Men of other countries will, with false hearts, put themselves under my authority: from the time when my name comes to their ears, they will be ruled by me.
