1. We have heard with our ears, God; our fathers have told us, what work you did in their days, in the days of old.
2. You drove out the nations with your hand, but you planted them. You afflicted the peoples, but you spread them abroad.
3. For they didn’t get 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 face, because you were favorable to them.
4. You are my King, God. Command victories for Jacob!
5. Through you, will we push down our adversaries. Through your name, will we tread them under who 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 adversaries, and have shamed those who hate us.
