    O God, my heart is fixed; I will make songs and melody, even with my glory.
  • 2. Give out your sounds, O corded instruments: the dawn will be awaking with my song.
  • 3. I will give you praise, O Lord, among the peoples; I will make melody to you among the nations.
  • 4. For your mercy is higher than the heavens: and your unchanging faith than the clouds.
  • 5. Be lifted up, O God, higher than the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.
  • 6. Let your right hand be stretched out for salvation, and give me an answer, so that your loved ones may be safe from danger.
  • 7. This is the word of the holy God: I will be glad; I will make Shechem a heritage, measuring out the valley of Succoth.
  • 8. Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;
  • 9. Moab is my washpot; on Edom is the resting-place of my shoe; over Philistia will I send out a glad cry.
  • 10. Who will take me into the strong town? who will be my guide into Edom?
  • 11. Have you not sent us away from you, O God? and you go not out with our armies.
  • 12. Give us help in our trouble; for there is no help in man.
  • 13. With God we will do great things; for by him will our haters be crushed underfoot.
