They did not conquer the land with their swords;
    it was not their own strong arm that gave them victory.
It was your right hand and strong arm
    and the blinding light from your face that helped them,

    You command victories for Israel.[a]
Only by your power can we push back our enemies;
    only in your name can we trample our foes.
