'Favorable' in the Bible

For they gat not the land in possession by their own sword, Neither did their own arm save them; But thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, Because thou wast favorable unto them.

Will the Lord cast off for ever? And will he be favorable no more?

Jehovah, thou hast been favorable unto thy land; Thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.
