New Living Translation | New International Version |
1My heart is confident in you, O God; no wonder I can sing your praises with all my heart! | 1A song. A psalm of David. My heart, O God, is steadfast; I will sing and make music with all my soul. |
2Wake up, lyre and harp! I will wake the dawn with my song. | 2Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn. |
3I will thank you, LORD, among all the people. I will sing your praises among the nations. | 3I will praise you, LORD, among the nations; I will sing of you among the peoples. |
4For your unfailing love is higher than the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. | 4For great is your love, higher than the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. |
5Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens. May your glory shine over all the earth. | 5Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth. |
6Now rescue your beloved people. Answer and save us by your power. | 6Save us and help us with your right hand, that those you love may be delivered. |
7God has promised this by his holiness : “I will divide up Shechem with joy. I will measure out the valley of Succoth. | 7God has spoken from his sanctuary: "In triumph I will parcel out Shechem and measure off the Valley of Sukkoth. |
8Gilead is mine, and Manasseh, too. Ephraim, my helmet, will produce my warriors, and Judah, my scepter, will produce my kings. | 8Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah is my scepter. |
9But Moab, my washbasin, will become my servant, and I will wipe my feet on Edom and shout in triumph over Philistia.” | 9Moab is my washbasin, on Edom I toss my sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph." |
10Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will bring me victory over Edom? | 10Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom? |
11Have you rejected us, O God? Will you no longer march with our armies? | 11Is it not you, God, you who have rejected us and no longer go out with our armies? |
12Oh, please help us against our enemies, for all human help is useless. | 12Give us aid against the enemy, for human help is worthless. |
13With God’s help we will do mighty things, for he will trample down our foes. | 13With God we will gain the victory, and he will trample down our enemies. |
