## Psalms 18:29-42 in Context (Verses 26–45 KJV)
 
 [26 ](/kjv/psalms/18/26) With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself froward.*
 
 [27 ](/kjv/psalms/18/27) For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.
 
 [28 ](/kjv/psalms/18/28) For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.*
 
 [29 ](/kjv/psalms/18/29) For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped over a wall.*
 
 [30 ](/kjv/psalms/18/30) *As for* God, his way *is* perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he *is* a buckler to all those that trust in him.*
 
 [31 ](/kjv/psalms/18/31) For who *is* God save the LORD? or who *is* a rock save our God?
 
 [32 ](/kjv/psalms/18/32) *It is* God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.
 
 [33 ](/kjv/psalms/18/33) He maketh my feet like hinds’ *feet*, and setteth me upon my high places.
 
 [34 ](/kjv/psalms/18/34) He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.
 
 [35 ](/kjv/psalms/18/35) Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great.*
 
 [36 ](/kjv/psalms/18/36) Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.*
 
 [37 ](/kjv/psalms/18/37) I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I turn again till they were consumed.
 
 [38 ](/kjv/psalms/18/38) I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen under my feet.
 
 [39 ](/kjv/psalms/18/39) For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.*
 
 [40 ](/kjv/psalms/18/40) Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me.
 
 [41 ](/kjv/psalms/18/41) They cried, but *there was* none to save *them: even* unto the LORD, but he answered them not.
 
 [42 ](/kjv/psalms/18/42) Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets.
 
 [43 ](/kjv/psalms/18/43) Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; *and* thou hast made me the head of the heathen: a people *whom* I have not known shall serve me.
 
 [44 ](/kjv/psalms/18/44) As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.***
 
 [45 ](/kjv/psalms/18/45) The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.*
 
[Psalms 17](/kjv/psalms/17) [Psalms 19](/kjv/psalms/19)
