Psalms 44:5

Thou art thyself my king and my God, who commandest the saving of Jacob.

Douay-Rheims 1899

In The King James Version

Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.

In Context

4For they got not the possession of the land by their own sword : neither did their own arm save them. But thy right hand and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance : because thou wast pleased with them.

6Through thee we will push down our enemies with the horn : and through thy name we will despise them that rise up against us.
