God praised, and supplicated to give victory.

A Song, a Psalm of David.

⁶Be exalted, O God, above the heavens! Let thy glory be over all the earth!

⁷That thy beloved may be delivered, give help by thy right hand, and answer me!

⁸God has promised in his sanctuary: "With exultation I will divide up Shechem, and portion out the Vale of Succoth.

⁹Gilead is mine; Manas'seh is mine; E'phraim is my helmet; Judah my scepter.

¹⁰Moab is my washbasin; upon Edom I cast my shoe; over Philistia I shout in triumph."

¹¹Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?

¹²Hast thou not rejected us, O God? Thou dost not go forth, O God, with our armies.

¹³O grant us help against the foe, for vain is the help of man! [ (Psalms 108:14) With God we shall do valiantly; it is he who will tread down our foes. ]
