Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me.

They cried, but there was none to save them: even unto the LORD, but he answered them not.

As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.***

The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.*
