Psalms 44:1-8
Come to Our Help
To the choirmaster. aA Maskil ▼▼Probably a musical or liturgical term of the Sons of Korah.
1 O God, we have heard with our ears,cour fathers have told us,
what deeds you performed in their days,
din the days of old:
2you with your own hand edrove out the nations,
but fthem you planted;
you afflicted the peoples,
but gthem you set free;
3for not hby their own sword did they win the land,
nor did their own arm save them,
but your right hand and your arm,
and ithe light of your face,
jfor you delighted in them.
4 kYou are my King, O God;
lordain salvation for Jacob!
5Through you we mpush down our foes;
through your name we ntread down those who rise up against us.
6For not in omy bow do I trust,
nor can my sword save me.
7But you have saved us from our foes
and have pput to shame those who hate us.
8 qIn God we have boasted continually,
and we will give thanks to your name forever. Selah
