A Song, a Psalm Of David. My heart is fixed, O God; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises, even with my glory.

3 I thank Thee among peoples, O Jehovah, And I praise Thee among the nations.

I will give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the peoples: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

4 For great above the heavens [is] Thy kindness, And unto the clouds Thy truth.

For thy mercy is great above the heavens, and thy truth [reacheth] unto the skies.

5 Be Thou exalted above the heavens, O God, And above all the earth Thy honour.

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 answer us.

7 God hath spoken in His holiness: I exult, I apportion Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure,

8 Mine [is] Gilead, mine [is] Manasseh, And Ephraim [is] the strength of my head, Judah [is] my lawgiver,

9 Moab [is] a pot for my washing, Upon Edom I cast my shoe, Over Philistia I shout habitually.

10 Who doth bring me in to the fenced city? Who hath led me unto Edom?

11 Hast not Thou, O God, cast us off? And Thou goest not out, O God, with our hosts!

Hast not thou cast us off, O God? and thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts.

12 Give to us help from adversity, And vain is the salvation of man.

Give us help against the adversary: for vain is the help of man.

13 In God we do mightily, And He doth tread down our adversaries!

Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our adversaries.
