Barnes's Psalms 18:39 Bible Commentary

For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle - See the note at Psalm 18:32. Compare Job 12:18; Proverbs 31:17.

Thou hast subdued under me - Margin, as in Hebrew, caused to bow. That is, God had caused them to submit to him; he had enabled him to overcome them; still acknowledging that all this was from God, and that the praise was due to Him, and not to the power of his own arm.
