Psalms 44:7
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.
For You save us from our enemies; You put those who hate us to shame.
8 In God we have boasted all day long, and Your name we will praise forever. Selah
9 But You have rejected and humbled us; You no longer go forth with our armies.
