Psalm 44:1-3

New Century Version

44 God, we have heard about you.
    Our ancestors told us
what you did in their days,
    in days long ago.
² With your power you forced the nations out of the land
    and placed our ancestors here.
You destroyed those other nations,
    but you made our ancestors grow strong.
³ It wasn’t their swords that took the land.
    It wasn’t their power that gave them victory.
But it was your great power and strength.
    You were with them because you loved them.
