Psalm 44:2–7

2 In order to plant them,

you displaced the nations by your hand;

in order to settle them,

you brought disaster on the peoples.o

3 For they did not take the land by their sword—

their arm did not bring them victory—

but by your right hand, your arm,

and the light of your face,p

because you were favorable toward them.q

4 You are my King, my God,

who ordainsA victories for Jacob.r

5 Through you we drive back our foes;

through your name we trample our enemies.s

6 For I do not trust in my bow,

and my sword does not bring me victory.t

7 But you give us victory over our foes

and let those who hate us be disgraced.u
