1A Song. A Psalm of David. O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing; yea, I will sing songs even with my glory.

2Awake, harp and lyre! I will awake early;

3I will thank You, O Jehovah, among the peoples; and I will sing to You among the nations.

4For Your mercy is great above the heavens; and Your truth reaches to the clouds.

5Be lifted up, O God, above the heavens; and Your glory above all the earth;

6O that Your beloved may be delivered; save by Your right hand and answer me.

7God has spoken in His holiness; I will rejoice; I will portion out Shechem; and I will measure out the valley of Succoth.

8Gilead is Mine; and Manasseh is Mine; and Ephraim is the refuge of My head; Judah is My lawgiver;

9Moab is My washpot; I will throw My shoe out over Edom; I will shout in triumph over Philistia.

10Who will lead me into the fortified city? Who will lead me over Edom?

11O God, have You not cast us off? And, O God, will You not go out with our armies?

12Give help to us from distress; for the deliverance of man is vanity.

13In God we shall act with strength, for He shall tread down ones oppressing us.
