A Song or Psalm of David.
O god, my
heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even
with my glory.
02 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake
early.
03 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people:
and I will sing praises unto thee among the
nations.
04 For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and
thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.
05 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and
thy glory above all the earth;
06 That thy beloved may be delivered: save with
thy right hand, and answer me.
07 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will
rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the
valley of Succoth.

08 Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also
is the strength of mine head; Judah is my
lawgiver;
09 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.
