Exegesis
The final clause am lo-yadati yaavduni {עַם לֹא־יָדַעְתִּי יַעַבְדֻנִי | ʿam lō–yāʿəṯtî yaʿăḇdûnî} ‘a people I did not know serve me’ contrasts perfect and imperfect aspects to highlight a shift from ignorance to submission. The English structure preserves these Hebrew aspectual and relational nuances by segmenting deliverance, elevation, and servitude across distinct clauses.
In context — 2 Samuel 22:44
You delivered me from the quarrelers of my people; You kept me as head over nations. A people I did not know now serves me.
