2
to plant them, You drove out the nations with Your hand; to settle them, You crushed the peoples.
Psalms 44:2 In-Context
1
We have heard it with our ears, O God; our ancestors have told us what you did in their days, in days long ago.
2
With your hand you drove out the nations and planted our ancestors; you crushed the peoples and made our ancestors flourish.
3
It was not by their sword that they won the land, nor did their arm bring them victory; it was your right hand, your arm, and the light of your face, for you loved them.
4
You are my King and my God, who decrees victories for Jacob.
5
Through you we push back our enemies; through your name we trample our foes.
