1 A Song. A Psalm of David. O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.
2 Awake, lute and harp! I will awaken the dawn.
3 I will praise You, O LORD, among the peoples, And I will sing praises to You among the nations.
4 For Your mercy [is] great above the heavens, And Your truth [reaches] to the clouds.
5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens, And Your glory above all the earth;
6 That Your beloved may be delivered, Save [with] Your right hand, and hear me.
7 God has spoken in His holiness: "I will rejoice; I will divide Shechem And measure out the Valley of Succoth.
8 Gilead [is] Mine; Manasseh [is] Mine; Ephraim also [is] the helmet for My head; Judah [is] My lawgiver.
9 Moab [is] My washpot; Over Edom I will cast My shoe; Over Philistia I will triumph."
10 Who will bring me [into] the strong city? Who will lead me to Edom?
11 [Is it] not [You,] O God, [who] cast us off? And [You,] O God, [who] did not go out with our armies?
12 Give us help from trouble, For the help of man is useless.
13 Through God we will do valiantly, For [it is] He [who] shall tread down our enemies.
