This psalm combines two excerpts from David’s other psalms (cp. 57:5, 7–11; 60:5–12).
1My heart is steadfast, O God;I will sing and make music with all my being.†2Awake, O harpand lyre!I will awaken the dawn.3I will praise You, O LORD, among the nations;I will sing Your praises among the peoples.4For Your loving devotion extends beyond the heavens,and Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.5Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;may Yourglory cover all the earth.6Respond and save us with Your right hand,that Your beloved may be delivered.7God has spoken from His sanctuary:†“I will triumph!I will parcel out Shechemand apportion the Valley of Succoth.8Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine;Ephraimis My helmet, Judahis My scepter.9Moabis My washbasin;upon Edom I toss My sandal;over Philistia I shout in triumph.”10Who will bring me to the fortified city?Who will lead me to Edom?11Have You not rejected us, O God?Will You no longer march out, O God, with our armies?12Give us aid against the enemy,for the help of man is worthless.13With God we will perform with valor,and He will trample our enemies.
