View In My BibleFor the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A "maskil."
1 We have heard with our ears,1 O God; our fathers have told us2 what you did in their days, in days long ago.3 2 With your hand you drove out4 the nations and planted5 our fathers; you crushed6 the peoples and made our fathers flourish.7 3 It was not by their sword8 that they won the land, nor did their arm bring them victory; it was your right hand,9 your arm,10 and the light11 of your face, for you loved12 them. 4 You are my King13 and my God,14 who decreesa victories15 for Jacob. 5 Through you we push back16 our enemies; through your name we trample17 our foes. 6 I do not trust in my bow,18 my sword does not bring me victory; 7 but you give us victory19 over our enemies, you put our adversaries to shame.20 8 In God we make our boast21 all day long,22 and we will praise your name forever.23 "Selah"Scripture quoted by permission.
