who gives victory to kings, who rescues David his servant from the cruel sword.
The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but the victory belongs to the Lord.
Great salvation he brings to his king, and shows steadfast love to his anointed, to David and his offspring forever.
Naaman, commander of the army of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master and in high favor, because by him the Lord had given victory to Syria. He was a mighty man of valor, but he was a leper.
He rose and struck down the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clung to the sword. And the Lord brought about a great victory that day, and the men returned after him only to strip the slain.
For he took his life in his hand and he struck down the Philistine, and the Lord worked a great salvation for all Israel. You saw it, and rejoiced. Why then will you sin against innocent blood by killing David without cause?”
So the Lord saved Israel that day. And the battle passed beyond Beth-aven.
