2 Samuel 18:28
Konteks18:28 Then Ahimaaz called out and said to the king, “Greetings!” 1 He bowed down before the king with his face toward the ground and said, “May the Lord your God be praised because he has defeated 2 the men who opposed 3 my lord the king!”
2 Samuel 22:1
Konteks22:1 4 David sang 5 to the Lord the words of this song when 6 the Lord rescued him from the power 7 of all his enemies, including Saul. 8
[18:28] 2 tn Heb “delivered over.”
[18:28] 3 tn Heb “lifted their hand against.”
[22:1] 4 sn In this long song of thanks, David affirms that God is his faithful protector. He recalls in highly poetic fashion how God intervened in awesome power and delivered him from death. His experience demonstrates that God vindicates those who are blameless and remain loyal to him. True to his promises, God gives the king victory on the battlefield and enables him to subdue nations. A parallel version of the song appears in Ps 18.
