\d A psalm written by David
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 1 God, I am very confident in you.
|
|
\q1 I will sing to praise you.
|
|
\q2 It is an honor to wake up and praise you.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 2 I will arise before the sun rises,
|
|
\q2 and I will praise you while I play my harp and my lyre.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 3 I prayed, "Yahweh, I will thank you among all the people groups;
|
|
\q2 I will sing to praise you among the nations
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 4 because your faithful love for us reaches up to the heavens,
|
|
\q2 and you are as faithful in keeping your promises as the clouds are high above the earth.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 5 Yahweh, show in the heavens that you are very great!
|
|
\q2 Show your glory to people all over the earth!
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 6 Answer our prayers and, by your powe,r help us to defeat our enemies
|
|
\q1 so that we, the people whom you love, may be saved."
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 7 Yahweh answered our prayers and spoke from his temple, saying, "Because I have conquered your enemies, I will joyfully divide the city of Shechem,
|
|
\q2 and I will distribute among my people the land in the Valley of Succoth.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 8 The region of Gilead is mine;
|
|
\q2 the people of the tribe of Manasseh are mine;
|
|
\q1 and the tribe of Judah is like my scepter.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 9 The region of Moab is like my washbasin;
|
|
\q2 I throw my sandal over the region of Edom to show that it belongs to me;
|
|
\q2 I shout triumphantly because I have defeated the people of the region of Philistia."
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 10 Because we want to attack the people of Edom,
|
|
\q1 who will lead my army to their capital city that has strong walls around it?
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q
|
|
\v 11 God, we do not want you to abandon us;
|
|
\q2 we want you to go with us when our army marches out to fight our enemies.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 12 We need you to help us when we fight against our enemies
|
|
\q2 because the help that humans can give us is worthless.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 13 But with you helping us, we shall win;
|
|
\q2 you will enable us to defeat our enemies.
