(A)You are my King, [a]O God;
[b]Command victories for Jacob.
Through You (B)we will push down our enemies;
Through Your name we will trample those who rise up against us.
For (C)I will not trust in my bow,
Nor shall my sword save me.
But You have saved us from our enemies,
And have put to shame those who hated us.
(D)In God we boast all day long,
And praise Your name forever. Selah
