1 For the choirmaster. A Maskil of the sons of Korah. We have heard with our ears, O God; our fathers have told us the work You did in their days, in the days of old.
2 With Your hand You drove out the nations and planted our fathers there; You crushed the peoples and cast them out.
3 For it was not by their sword that they took the land; their arm did not bring them victory. It was by Your right hand, Your arm, and the light of Your face, because You favored them.
4 You are my King, O God, who ordains victories for Jacob.
5 Through You we repel our foes; through Your name we trample our enemies.
6 For I do not trust in my bow, nor does my sword save me.
7 For You save us from our enemies; You put those who hate us to shame.

21 being fully persuaded that God was able to do what He had promised.

13 All these people died in faith, without having received the things they were promised. However, they saw them and welcomed them from afar. And they acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.
