Psalm 44:3-5
Contemporary English Version

3 Their strength and weapons
were not what won the land
    and gave them victory!
You loved them and fought
with your powerful arm
    and your shining glory.

4 You are my God and King,
and you give victory[a]
    to the people of Jacob.
5 By your great power,
we knocked our enemies down
    and trampled on them.

    who decrees[a] victories(H) for Jacob.
