ESVEnglish Standard Version

you with your own hand drove out the nations,

but them you planted;

you afflicted the peoples,

but them you set free;

for not by their own sword did they win the land,

nor did their own arm save them,

but your right hand and your arm,

and the light of your face,

for you delighted in them.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

In order to plant them,

you displaced the nations by your hand;

in order to settle them,

you brought disaster on the peoples.

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,

because you were favorable toward them.

NLTNew Living Translation

You drove out the pagan nations by your power

and gave all the land to our ancestors.

You crushed their enemies

and set our ancestors free.

They did not conquer the land with their swords;

it was not their own strong arm that gave them victory.

It was your right hand and strong arm

and the blinding light from your face that helped them,

for you loved them.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

You with your hand drove out the nations,

but them you planted.

You harmed the peoples,

but them you let spread out.

For not with their sword

did they possess the land,

and their arm did not give them victory.

Rather it was your right hand and your arm

and the light of your presence,

because you delighted in them.

KJV 1900King James Version

How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them;

How thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.

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.
