Psalm 44:1-3

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

44 We have heard with our ears, O God,
    our fathers have told us,
what deeds thou didst perform in their days,
    in the days of old:
² 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;
³ for not by their own sword did they win the land,
    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.
