3
for not by their own sword did they win the land, nor did their own arm give them victory; but thy right hand, and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance; for thou didst delight in them.
4
Thou art my King and my God, who ordainest victories for Jacob.
5
Through thee we push down our foes; through thy name we tread down our assailants.
6
For not in my bow do I trust, nor can my sword save me.
7
But thou hast saved us from our foes, and hast put to confusion those who hate us.
8
In God we have boasted continually, and we will give thanks to thy name for ever. [Selah]
9
Yet thou hast cast us off and abased us, and hast not gone out with our armies.
10
Thou hast made us turn back from the foe; and our enemies have gotten spoil.
11
Thou hast made us like sheep for slaughter, and hast scattered us among the nations.
12
Thou hast sold thy people for a trifle, demanding no high price for them.
13
Thou hast made us the taunt of our neighbors, the derision and scorn of those about us.
