Discovery Box2 Samuel 22:38-41 
Context22:38 I chase my enemies and destroy them;
I do not turn back until I wipe them out.
22:39 I wipe them out and beat them to death;
they cannot get up;
they fall at my feet.
22:40 You give me strength for battle; 1
you make my foes kneel before me. 2
22:41 You make my enemies retreat; 3
I destroy those who hate me.
1 tn Heb “you clothed me with strength for battle.”
2 tn Heb “you make those who rise against me kneel beneath me.”
3 tn Heb “and [as for] my enemies, you give to me [the] back [or “neck” ].” The idiom “give [the] back” means “to cause [one] to turn the back and run away.” See Exod 23:27 and HALOT 888 s.v. II ערף.
