ASV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ For the Chief Musician. [A Psalm] of the sons of Korah. Maschil.

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. 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. ³ For they gat 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 wast favorable unto them. ⁴ Thou art my King, O God:
Command deliverance for Jacob. ⁵ Through thee will we push down our adversaries:
Through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us. ⁶ For I will not trust in my bow,
Neither shall my sword save me. ⁷ But thou hast saved us from our adversaries,
And hast put them to shame that hate us.
