1. O God, we have heard with our ears, Our fathers have told us The work that You did in their days, In the days of old.
2. You with Your own hand drove out the nations; Then You planted them; You afflicted the peoples, Then You spread them abroad.
3. For by their own sword they did not possess the land, And their own arm did not save them, But Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your presence, For You favored them.
4. You are my King, O God; Command victories for Jacob.
5. Through You we will push back our adversaries; Through Your name we will trample down those who rise up against us.
6. For I will not trust in my bow, Nor will my sword save me.
