Psalms 44:2

Read in context

Psalms 44:1–4 · Berean Standard Bible

1 We have heard with our ears, O God; our fathers have told us the work You did in their days, in the days of old.

2 With Your hand You drove out the nations and planted our fathers there; You crushed the peoples and cast them out.

3 For it was not by their sword that they took the land; their arm did not bring them victory. It was by Your right hand, Your arm, and the light of Your face, because You favored them.

4 You are my King, O God, who ordains victories for Jacob.
