2 how you yourself drove out the heathenand established your people in their land;how you punished the other nationsand caused your own to prosper.
3 Your people did not conquer the land with their swords;they did not win it by their own power;it was by your power and your strength,by the assurance of your presence,which showed that you loved them.
4 You are my king and my God;you give victory to your people,
5 and by your power we defeat our enemies.
6 I do not trust in my bowor in my sword to save me;
7 but you have saved us from our enemiesand defeated those who hate us.
8 We will always praise youand give thanks to you for ever.
