1
O God, my heart is ready, my heart is ready; I will sing and sing psalms with my glory.
2
Awake, psaltery and harp; I will awake early.
3
I will give thanks to thee, O Lord, among the people; I will sing praise to thee among the Gentiles.
4
For thy mercy is great above the heavens, and thy truth reaches to the clouds.
5
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; and thy glory above all the earth.
6
That thy beloved ones may be delivered, save with thy right hand, and hear me. God has spoken in his sanctuary;
7
I will be exalted, and will divide Sicima, and will measure out the valley of tents.
8
Galaad is mine; and Manasses is mine; and Ephraim is the help of mine head; Judas is my king;
9
Moab is the caldron of my hope; over Idumea will I cast my sandal; the Philistines are made subject to me.
10
Who will bring me into the fortified city? or who will guide me to Idumea?
11
Wilt not thou, O God, who hast rejected us? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?
12
Give us help from tribulation: for vain is the help of man.
13
Through God we shall do valiantly; and he will bring to nought our enemies.
