 1 A Song, A Psalm of David. O God, my heart is fixed. I will sing and I will give praise, even with my glory. 2 Awake, harp and lyre. I will awake early. 3 I will praise you, O Lord, among the people. I will sing praises to you among the nations. 4 For your mercy is great above the heavens. Your truth reaches to the clouds. 5 Be lifted up, O God, above the heavens and your glory above all the earth. 6 Thus, your beloved may be delivered. Save with your right hand and answer me. 7 God has spoken in His holiness. I will rejoice. I will divide Shechem. I will measure out the valley of Succoth. 8 Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim is the strength of my head. Judah is my lawgiver. 9 Moab is my washpot. I will cast out my shoe over Edom. I will triumph over Philistia. 10 Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom? 11 O God, have you not cast us off? O God, will you not go out with our armies? 12 Give us help from trouble. For vain is the deliverance of man. 13 Through God we will do mighty things. For He will trample our enemies.
