My heart is steadfast, God. I will sing and I will make music with my soul.
|
| 2 |
Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn.
|
| 3 |
I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations. I will sing praises to you among the peoples.
|
| 4 |
For your loving kindness is great above the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
|
| 5 |
Be exalted, God, above the heavens! Let your glory be over all the earth.
|
| 6 |
That your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand, and answer us.

God has spoken from his sanctuary: “In triumph, I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.
|
| 8 |
Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is my helmet. Judah is my scepter.
|
| 9 |
Moab is my wash pot. I will toss my sandal on Edom. I will shout over Philistia.”
|
| 10 |
Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
|
| 11 |
Haven’t you rejected us, God? You don’t go out, God, with our armies.
|
| 12 |
Give us help against the enemy, for the help of man is vain.
|
| 13 |
Through God, we will do valiantly, for it is he who will tread down our enemies.
