Verse 37 is found in chapter 18 of Psalms. Psalm 18 is an extensive thanksgiving for a deliverance attributed directly to the Lord. The opening description uses images of rock, fortress, shield, and refuge before portraying divine intervention through cosmic phenomena. The psalmist then interprets his deliverance in relation to his walk before God and describes how the Lord equips him for battle. The psalm concludes by broadening the perspective toward God’s faithfulness to the king and his descendants.

Du machst unter mir Raum zu gehen, daß meine Knöchel nicht wanken.
Perseguido he mis enemigos, y alcancelos, Y no volví hasta acabarlos.
Perseguí a mis enemigos y los alcancé; no volví hasta acabar con ellos.
Je poursuis mes ennemis, je les atteins, Et je ne reviens pas avant de les avoir anéantis.
Io ho perseguitati i miei nemici, e li ho aggiunti; E non me ne son tornato indietro, finchè non li abbia distrutti.
Persegui os meus inimigos, e os alcancei; não voltei senão depois de os ter consumido.
我要追趕我的仇敵,且要追上他們; 若不將他們滅絕,我總不歸回。
