O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.

For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.

5 B e lifted up high above the heavens, O God. Let Your shining-greatness be over all the earth.

Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;

6 S ave us with Your right hand and answer me. Let Your loved ones be set free.

7 G od has said in His holy place: “I will be full of joy. I will divide Shechem and the valley of Succoth.

God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;

9 M oab is where I wash My hands. I will throw My shoe over Edom. I will call out over Philistia that I have won.”

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

Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

11 H ave You not turned away from us, O God? And will You not go out with our armies, O God?

Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

12 O give us help against those who hate us. For the help of man is worth nothing.

Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

13 W ith God’s help we will do great things. And He will break under His feet those who fight against us.

Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
