2Through your power you drove out the other nations so you could settle our ancestors there; you defeated the nations and you sent our ancestors to occupy the land.
3They did not conquer the land using their swords; it was not through their own strength that the victory was won—it was by your strength, your power, and your presence with them, because you loved them.
4God, you are my King; command victories for Jacob!
5Only through you can we repel our enemies; only in your name can we defeat our opponents.
6I do not trust my bow; I do not have confidence in my sword to save me.
7You are the one who saves us from our enemies; you defeat those who hate us.
8God, we proudly thank you all day long, and praise your name forever. Selah.
9But now you have rejected and disgraced us; you no longer accompany our armies.
10You made us run from our enemies, and those who hate us have taken whatever they wanted.
11You have handed us over like sheep to be slaughtered; you have scattered us among the other nations.
12You have sold your own people for next to nothing, making no profit on the sale.
13You have made a mockery of us before our neighbors, we are ridiculed and laughed at by those around us.
14You have made us a joke to the other nations; they scornfully shake their heads at us.
15We are humiliated all day long; we hold our heads in shame,
16because of all the insults from the people mocking us, because our vengeful enemies are right in front of us.
17All this has happened to us even though we didn't forget you; we haven't been unfaithful to the promises we made to you.
18We have not turned away from you, not in thought, nor in action.
