New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (nwt, en_US, 2013)

Psalm

A song. A melody of David.

¹ My heart is steadfast, O God. I will sing and make music with my whole being.^*1

² Do awake, O stringed instrument; you too, O harp. I will awaken the dawn.

³ I will praise you among the peoples, O Jehovah, And I will sing praises^*1 to you among the nations.

⁴ For your loyal love is great, as high as the heavens, And your faithfulness, up to the skies.

⁵ Be exalted above the heavens, O God; May your glory be over all the earth.

⁶ So that your loved ones may be rescued, Save us with your right hand and answer me.

⁷ God has spoken in his holiness:^*1 “I will exult, I will give out Sheʹchem as an inheritance, And I will measure off the Valley^*2 of Sucʹcoth.

⁸ Gilʹe·ad belongs to me, as does Ma·nasʹseh, And Eʹphra·im is the helmet^*1 for my head; Judah is my commander’s staff.

⁹ Moʹab is my washbasin. Over Eʹdom I will throw my sandal. Over Phi·lisʹti·a I will shout in triumph.”

¹⁰ Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me as far as Eʹdom?

¹¹ Is it not you, O God, who have rejected us, Our God, who no longer goes out with our armies?

¹² Help us in our distress, For salvation by humans is worthless.

¹³ By God we will gain power, And he will trample on our adversaries.
