   My heart is ready, o God, my heart is ready : I will chant and will sing in my glory.

3. 3

   Arise my glory, arise psalter and harp: I will arise early.

4. 4

   I will confess to thee in peoples, o Lord: and I will sing to thee in the Nations.

5. 5

   Because thy mercy is great above the heavens: & thy truth even to the clouds.

6. 6

   Be exalted above the heavens o God, and thy glory over all the earth:

7. 7

   that thy beloved may be delivered. Save with thy right hand, and hear me:

8. 8

   God spake in his holy: I will rejoice, and will divide Sichem, and I will measure the vale of tabernacles.

9. 9

   Galaad is mine, and Manasses is mine: and Ephraim the protection of my head. Juda is my king:

11. 11

    Who will conduct me into a fenced city? Who will conduct me into Idumea?

12. 12

    Wilt not thou, o God, which hast repelled us, and wilt not thou go forth, o God, in our hosts?

13. 13

    Give us help out of tribulation: because man's salvation is vain.

14. 14

    In God we shall do strength: and he will bring our enemies to nothing.
