It is God that avengeth me, and subdueth the people under me.
It is God who takes vengeance on David's behalf and who brings peoples into subjection under his rule. The overthrow and subduing of Israel's enemies that lifted the nation to greatness was not David's own achievement but the working of divine providence. David looked back upon those victories as deliverances from danger. For them he gave the praise and glory to God.
