1  O god, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.

 

2  Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

 

3  I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

 

4  For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.

 

5  Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;

 

6  That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.

 

7  God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

 

8  Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;

 

9  Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.

 

10  Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

 

11  Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

 

12  Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

 

13  Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
