Psalm 44:1-3

Contemporary English Version

¹ Our God, our ancestors told us
what wonders you worked
    and we listened carefully.
² You chased off the nations
by causing them trouble
    with your powerful arm.
Then you let our ancestors
    take over their land.
³ Their strength and weapons
were not what won the land
    and gave them victory!
You loved them and fought
with your powerful arm
    and your shining glory.
