1 TO THE OVERSEER. AN INSTRUCTION OF THE SONS OF KORAH. O God, we have heard with our ears, || Our fathers have recounted to us, || The work You worked in their days, || In the days of old. 2 You, [with] Your hand, have dispossessed nations. And You plant them. You afflict peoples, and send them away. 3 For they did not possess the land by their sword, || And their arm did not give salvation to them, || But Your right hand, and Your arm, || And the light of Your countenance, || Because You had accepted them. 4 You [are] He, my King, O God, || Command the deliverances of Jacob. 5 By You we push our adversaries, || By Your Name we tread down our withstanders, 6 For I do not trust in my bow, || And my sword does not save me. 7 For You have saved us from our adversaries, || And You have put to shame those hating us.
