Psalm 44:1-3

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

¹ We have heard with our ears, O God,
    our ancestors have told us,
what deeds you performed in their days,
    in the days of old:
² you with your own hand drove out the nations,
    but them you planted;
you afflicted the peoples,
    but them you set free;
³ for not by their own sword did they win the land,
    nor did their own arm give them victory;
but your right hand, and your arm,
    and the light of your countenance,
    for you delighted in them.
