1. We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work you did in their days, in the times of old.
2. How you did drive out the nations with your hand, and planted them; how you did 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 your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your countenance, because you had favor unto them.
4. You are my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.
5. Through you will we push down our enemies: through your 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.
7. But you have saved us from our enemies, and have put them to shame that hated us.
8. In God we boast all the day long, and praise your name forever. Selah.
9. But you have cast off, and put us to shame; and go not forth with our armies.
10. You make us to turn back from the enemy: and they who hate us take spoil for themselves.
