Psalms 44

3 For they did not take the land by their sword —

their arm did not bring them victory —

but by your right hand, your arm,

and the light of your face,  * 44:3 Nm 6:25

because you were favorable toward them.  * 44:3 Dt 7:7–8; Ps 77:15; Hs 1:7

4 You are my King, my God,

who ordains  * 44:4 LXX, Syr, Aq; MT reads King, God; ordain victories for Jacob.  * 44:4 Ps 42:8; 74:12
