1 We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old. |
2 How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out. |
3 For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them. |
4 Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob. |
5 Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us. |
6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me. |
