About this psalm

Made out of pieces of two earlier ones: the confident singing from Psalm 57 and the war prayer from Psalm 60, set side by side as one song. That is worth seeing. Someone took what had been written in a cave and what had been written after a defeat and put them together, starting with the line O God, my heart is fixed.

My psalms

One verse at a time, slowly

1O God, my heart is fixed;I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.2Awake, psaltery and harp:I myself will awake early.3I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people:and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.4For thy mercy is great above the heavens:and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.5Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens:and thy glory above all the earth;6That thy beloved may be delivered:save with thy right hand, and answer me.7God hath spoken in his holiness;I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.8Gilead is mine;Manasseh is mine;Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;9Moab is my washpot;over Edom will I cast out my shoe;over Philistia will I triumph.10Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?11Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?12Give us help from trouble:for vain is the help of man.13Through God we shall do valiantly:for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
