1A song <07892>, a psalm <04210> of David <01732>. I am determined <03559>, O God <0430>! I will sing <07891> and <0637> praise <02167> you with my whole heart <03519>.
2Awake <05782>, O stringed instrument <05035> and harp <03658>! I will wake up <05782> at dawn <07837>!
3I will give you thanks <03034> before the nations <05971>, O Lord <03068>! I will sing praises <02167> to you before foreigners <03816>!
4For <03588> your loyal love <02617> extends <01419> beyond <05921> the sky <08064>, and your faithfulness <0571> reaches <05704> the clouds <07834>.
5Rise up <07311> above <05921> the sky <08064>, O God <0430>! May your splendor <03519> cover <05921> the whole <03605> earth <0776>!
6Deliver <03467> by your power <03225> and answer <06030> me, so that <04616> the ones you love <03039> may be safe <02502>.
7God <0430> has spoken <01696> in his sanctuary <06944>: “I will triumph <05937>! I will parcel out <02505> Shechem <07927>, the valley <06010> of Succoth <05523> I will measure <04058> off.
8Gilead <01568> belongs to me, as does Manasseh <04519>! Ephraim <0669> is my helmet <07218> <04581>, Judah <03063> my royal scepter <02710>.
9Moab <04124> is my wash basin <07366> <05518>. I will make <07993> Edom <0123> serve <05275> me. I will shout in triumph <07321> over <05921> Philistia <06429>.”
10Who <04310> will lead <02986> me into the fortified <04013> city <05892>? Who <04310> will bring <05148> me to <05704> Edom <0123>?
11Have you not <03808> rejected <02186> us, O God <0430>? O God <0430>, you do not <03808> go <03318> into battle with our armies <06635>.
12Give <03051> us help <05833> against the enemy <06862>, for any help <08668> men <0120> might offer is futile <07723>.
13By God’s <0430> power <02428> we will conquer <06213>; he <01931> will trample down <0947> our enemies <06862>.
