Psalms

(107)Song or Victory(Ps 57:8(12; 60:7-14)2My heart is ready, O God! I will sing praise and make music. Awake my soul!

Awake, harp and lyre! I will awake the dawn.

I will thank you, O Lord, among the nations. I will sing praise to you among the peoples.

For great is your love above the heavens; your faithfulness, beyond the skies.

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over the earth.

Give help; and save us by your right hand, and rescue those you love.

God has spoken in his Sanctuary: “In triumph, I will divide up Shechem and parcel out the Valley of Succoth.

Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my scepter.

Moab is my washbasin; upon Edom, I cast my sandal; over Philistia, I shout in triumph.”

Who will take me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?

O God! Have you really rejected us? You no longer go with our armies.

Give us aid against the foe, for the help of mortals is not worth a straw.

With God, we will gain victory; he will crush the enemy for us.
