Psalm 44:4-6
New Catholic Bible
4 It was not their own swords that won them the land,
nor did their own arms make them victorious;
rather, it was your right hand and your arm
and the light of your face,[a]
because you loved them.
5 You are my[b] King and my God,
who bestowed victories upon Jacob.
6 Through you we throw back our enemies;
through your name[c] we crush our assailants.
