{A Song, a Psalm of David.} My heart is fixed, O God: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms, even [with] my glory. |
2
|
Awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn. |
3
|
I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Jehovah; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations: |
4
|
For thy loving-kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is unto the clouds. |
5
|
Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God, and thy glory above all the earth. |
6
|
That thy beloved ones may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me. |
7
|
God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth. |
8
|
Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver; |
9
|
Moab is my wash-pot; upon Edom will I cast my sandal; over Philistia will I shout aloud. |
10
|
Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me unto Edom? |
11
|
[Wilt] not [thou], O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies? |
12
|
Give us help from trouble; for vain is man's deliverance. |
13
|
Through God we shall do valiantly; and he it is that will tread down our adversaries. |
