1 A Song, a Psalm of David. Prepared is my heart, O God, I sing, yea, I sing praise, also my honour.2 Awake, psaltery and harp, I awake the dawn.3 I thank Thee among peoples, O Jehovah, And I praise Thee among the nations.4 For great above the heavens [is] Thy kindness, And unto the clouds Thy truth.5 Be Thou exalted above the heavens, O God, And above all the earth Thy honour.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!12 Give to us help from adversity, And vain is the salvation of man.13 In God we do mightily, And He doth tread down our adversaries!

1 My heart is fixed, O God; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises, even with my glory.

2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake right early.

3 I will give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the peoples: 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 skies.

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 us.

7 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will exult: I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

8 Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of mine head; Judah is my sceptre.

9 Moab is my washpot; upon Edom will I cast my shoe: over Philistia will I shout.

10 Who will bring me into the fenced city? who hath led me unto Edom?

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

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

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