44:1 We have heard with our ears, O God, Our fathers have told us, What work thou didst in their days, In the days of old.
44:2 Thou didst drive out the nations with thy hand; But them thou didst plant: Thou didst afflict the peoples; But them thou didst spread abroad.
44:3 For they gat not the land in possession by their own sword, Neither did their own armsave them; But thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, Because thou wast favorable unto them.
44:4 Thou art my King, O God: Command deliverance for Jacob.
44:5 Through thee will we push down our adversaries: Through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.
44:6 For I will not trust in my bow, Neither shall my swordsave me.
