Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ For the conclusion. For the sons of Kore. A Psalm for Understanding. O God, we have heard with our ears: our fathers have told us the work which thou didst in the days of old. ² When thy hand had extirpated nations, thou didst plant them: thou didst afflict nations and drive them out. ³ For they took not possession of the land with their own sword: nor was it their own arm that saved them: but thy right hand and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou tookest pleasure in them. ⁴ Thou, who didst command the deliverances of Jacob; even thou art my king and my God. ⁵ By thee we can push down our enemies, and through thy name, scorn them who rise up against us.
