3 For they got not the possession of the land by their own sword : neither did their own arm save them. But thy right hand and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance : because thou wast pleased with them. 4 Thou art thyself my king and my God, who commandest the saving of Jacob. 5 Through thee we will push down our enemies with the horn : and through thy name we will despise them that rise up against us. 6 For I will not trust in my bow : neither shall my sword save me. 7 But thou hast saved us from them that afflict us : and hast put them to shame that hate us.
