New Living Translation NLT
King James Version KJV
1 My heart is confident in you, O God; no wonder I can sing your praises with all my heart!
1
O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.
2 Wake up, lyre and harp! I will wake the dawn with my song.
2
Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
3 I will thank you, LORD, among all the people. I will sing your praises among the nations.
3
I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
4 For your unfailing love is higher than the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
4
For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.
5 Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens. May your glory shine over all the earth.
5
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;
6 Now rescue your beloved people. Answer and save us by your power.
6
That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.
7 God has promised this by his holiness : “I will divide up Shechem with joy. I will measure out the valley of Succoth.
7
God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
8 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh, too. Ephraim, my helmet, will produce my warriors, and Judah, my scepter, will produce my kings.
8
Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
9 But Moab, my washbasin, will become my servant, and I will wipe my feet on Edom and shout in triumph over Philistia.”
9
Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will bring me victory over Edom?
10
Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
11 Have you rejected us, O God? Will you no longer march with our armies?
11
Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?
12 Oh, please help us against our enemies, for all human help is useless.
12
Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
13 With God’s help we will do mighty things, for he will trample down our foes.
13
Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
