1 ¶ O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise; this is my glory.

A Song, a Psalm of David. Prepared is my heart, O God, I sing, yea, I sing praise, also my honour.

2 A wake, psaltery and harp; I will awake the dawn.

Awake, psaltery and harp, I awake the dawn.

3 I will praise thee, O LORD, among the peoples, and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

I thank Thee among peoples, O Jehovah, And I praise Thee among the nations.

4 F or thy mercy is great above the heavens, and thy truth reaches unto the heavens.

For great above the heavens Thy kindness, And unto the clouds Thy truth.

5 B e thou exalted, O God, above the heavens and thy glory above all the earth;

Be Thou exalted above the heavens, O God, And above all the earth Thy honour.

6 ¶ that thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.

That Thy beloved ones may be delivered, Save Thy right hand, and answer us.

7 G od has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem and mete out the valley of Succoth.

God hath spoken in His holiness: I exult, I apportion Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure,

8 G ilead shall be mine; Manasseh shall be mine; Ephraim also shall be the strength of my head; Judah shall be my lawgiver;

Mine Gilead, mine Manasseh, And Ephraim the strength of my head, Judah my lawgiver,

9 M oab shall be my washpot; over Edom I will cast my shoe; over Philistia I will triumph.

Moab a pot for my washing, Upon Edom I cast my shoe, Over Philistia I shout habitually.

10 W ho will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

Who doth bring me in to the fenced city? Who hath led me unto Edom?

11 S urely thou, O God, who had cast us off and did not, O God, go forth with our hosts.

Hast not Thou, O God, cast us off? And Thou goest not out, O God, with our hosts!

12 G ive us help from trouble; for the salvation of man is deception.

Give to us help from adversity, And vain is the salvation of man.

13 T hrough God we shall do valiantly, for he shall tread down our enemies again.

In God we do mightily, And He doth tread down our adversaries!
