[1] God, my heart is steady. I will sing and praise you with all my being. [2] Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn. [3] LORD, I will praise you among the nations; I will sing songs of praise about you to all the nations. [4] Your great love reaches to the skies, your truth to the heavens. [5] God, you are supreme above the skies. Let your glory be over all the earth. [6] Answer us and save us by your power so the people you love will be rescued. [7] God has said from his Temple, "When I win, I will divide Shechem and measure off the Valley of Succoth. [8] Gilead and Manasseh are mine. Ephraim is like my helmet. Judah holds my royal scepter. [9] Moab is like my washbowl. I throw my sandals at Edom. I shout at Philistia." [10] Who will bring me to the strong, walled city? Who will lead me to Edom? [11] God, surely you have rejected us; you do not go out with our armies. [12] Help us fight the enemy. Human help is useless, [13] but we can win with God's help. He will defeat our enemies.
