Psalms 89:23

⁹I have been with you wherever you went, and have cut off all your enemies from before you. I will make you a great name, like the name of the great ones who are in the earth.

¹Now there was long war between Saul’s house and David’s house. David grew stronger and stronger, but Saul’s house grew weaker and weaker.

¹When the king lived in his house, and the LORD had given him rest from all his enemies all around,

¹⁸I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on himself, his crown will shine.”

⁴⁰For you have armed me with strength for the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me. ⁴¹You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me. ⁴²They looked, but there was no one to save; even to the LORD, but he didn’t answer them. ⁴³Then I beat them as small as the dust of the earth. I crushed them as the mire of the streets, and spread them abroad. ⁴⁴You also have delivered me from the strivings of my people. You have kept me to be the head of the nations. A people whom I have not known will serve me.

⁸Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find out those who hate you. ⁹You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. The LORD will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire shall devour them.

⁴⁰You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.

²³He who hates me, hates my Father also.

¹⁴But his citizens hated him, and sent an envoy after him, saying, ‘We don’t want this man to reign over us.’
