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
Gilead is Mine; Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the strength of Mine head; Judah is My lawgiver.
9
Moab is My washpot; over Edom will I cast My shoe; over Philistia will I triumph."
10
Who will bring me into the stronghold 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.
