For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall.

Verse 30 is found in chapter 22 of 2 Samuel. David speaks of God’s righteousness and of his own conduct before the Lord. The passage should be read within the poetic language of the song rather than as a claim of absolute moral perfection, especially considering the sins narrated earlier. The central idea is that God responds according to his justice and that his ways are blameless. The text also affirms that God’s word has been tested and that he is a shield to those who trust in him.

Denn mit dir kann ich Kriegsvolk zerschlagen und mit meinem Gott über die Mauer springen.
Porque en ti romperé ejércitos, Y con mi Dios saltaré las murallas.
Contigo puedo acometer una tropa; con mi Dios puedo saltar una muralla.
Avec toi je me précipite sur une troupe en armes, Avec mon Dieu je franchis une muraille.
Perciocchè per te io rompo tutta una schiera; Per l’Iddio mio io salgo sopra il muro.
Porque contigo passo pelo meio de um esquadrão; pelo meu Deus salto um muro.
我藉著你衝入敵軍, 藉著我的上帝跳過城牆。
