Exegesis
The conjunction ki {כִּ֥י | kî} introduces a causal clause, and the Qal perfect omtsu {אָמְצ֖וּ | ʾomṣû} “they were” plus the prepositional phrase mimmênî {מִמֶּֽנִּי | mimmênî} “than me” express the foe’s overwhelming strength. The parallel structure highlights the cause-and-effect relationship between the enemy’s might and the psalmist’s deliverance.
In context — 2 Samuel 22:18
He rescued me from my mighty enemy and from those who hated me, for they were too strong for me.
