Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awake the dawn.
3
I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples, and I will sing praises to you among the nations.
4
For your steadfast love is higher than the heavens, and your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
5
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens, and let your glory be over all the earth.
6
Give victory with your right hand, and answer me, so that those whom you love may be rescued.

God has promised in his sanctuary: "With exultation I will divide up Shechem, and portion out the Vale of Succoth.
8
Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet; Judah is my scepter.
9
Moab is my washbasin; on Edom I hurl my shoe; over Philistia I shout in triumph."
10
Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
11
Have you not rejected us, O God? You do not go out, O God, with our armies.
12
O grant us help against the foe, for human help is worthless.
