1 My heart is steadfast, O God;
I will sing and make music with all my soul. |
2 Awake, harp and lyre!
I will awaken the dawn. |
3 I will praise you, O LORD , among the nations;
I will sing of you among the peoples. |
4 For great is your love, higher than the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches to the skies. |
5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens,
and let your glory be over all the earth. |
6 Save us and help us with your right hand,
that those you love may be delivered. |
7 God has spoken from his sanctuary:
"In triumph I will parcel out Shechem
and measure off the Valley of Succoth. |
8 Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine;
Ephraim is my helmet,
Judah my scepter. |
9 Moab is my washbasin,
upon Edom I toss my sandal;
over Philistia I shout in triumph." |
10 Who will bring me to the fortified city?
Who will lead me to Edom? |
11 Is it not you, O God, you who have rejected us
and no longer go out with our armies? |
12 Give us aid against the enemy,
for the help of man is worthless. |
13 With God we will gain the victory,
and he will trample down our enemies. |
