[1] My heart is steadfast, O God! I will sing and make melody with all my being!
[2] Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awake the dawn!
[3] I will give thanks to you, O LORD, among the peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations.
[4] For your steadfast love is great above the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
[5] Be exalted, O God, above the heavens! Let your glory be over all the earth!
[6] That your beloved ones may be delivered, give salvation by your right hand and answer me!
[7] God has promised in his holiness: “With exultation I will divide up Shechem and portion out 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 cast my shoe; over Philistia I shout in triumph.”
[10] Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
[11] Have you not rejected us, O God? You do not go out, O God, with our armies.
[12] Oh grant us help against the foe, for vain is the salvation of man!
[13] With God we shall do valiantly; it is he who will tread down our foes.
