Ps. 57.7 · 12.7 |
A Song or Psalm of David. |
|
1 |
O God, my heart is fixed;
|
I will sing and give praise, |
even with my glory. |
|
|
2 |
Awake, psaltery and harp:
|
I myself will awake early. |
|
|
3 |
I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people:
|
and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations. |
|
|
4 |
For thy mercy is great above the heavens:
|
and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds. |
|
|
5 |
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens:
|
and thy glory above all the earth; |
|
|
6 |
that thy beloved may be delivered:
|
save with thy right hand, and answer me. |
|
|
7 |
God hath spoken in his holiness;
|
I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, |
and mete out the valley of Succoth. |
|
|
8 |
Gil’e-ad is mine; Manas’seh is mine;
|
E’phra-im also is the strength of mine head; |
Judah is my lawgiver; |
|
|
9 |
Moab is my washpot;
|
over Edom will I cast out my shoe; |
over Philis’ti-a will I triumph. |
|
|
10 |
Who will bring me into the strong city?
|
Who will lead me into Edom? |
|
|
11 |
Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off?
|
And wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts? |
|
|
12 |
Give us help from trouble:
|
for vain is the help of man. |
|
|
13 |
Through God we shall do valiantly:
|
for he it is that shall tread down our enemies. |
