National Lament and Prayer for Help

To the choirmaster. A Maskil of the Sons of Korah.

    in the days of old:
thou with thy own hand didst drive out the nations,
    but them thou didst plant;
thou didst afflict the peoples,
    but them thou didst set free;

    nor did their own arm give them victory;
but thy right hand, and thy arm,
    and the light of thy countenance;
    for thou didst delight in them.
