Psalm 44:1-3

Easy-to-Read Version

44 God, we have heard about you.
    Our fathers told us what you did in their lifetime.
    They told us what you did long ago.
² With your great power you took this land from other people,
    and you gave it to us.
You crushed those foreigners
    and forced them to leave this land.
³ It was not our fathers’ swords that took the land.
    It was not their strong arms that brought them victory.
It was your power.
    It was because you accepted them and smiled down on them.
