And I will sing praises to You among the nations.

4 For Your alovingkindness is great babove the heavens,

And Your truth reaches to the skies.

And Your glory above all the earth.

Save with Your right hand, and answer me!

“I will exult, I will portion out Shechem

And measure out the valley of Succoth.

Ephraim also is the 1helmet of My head;

aJudah is My 2scepter.

9 “Moab is My washbowl;

Over Edom I shall throw My shoe;

Over Philistia I will shout aloud.”

10 aWho will bring me into the besieged city?

Who 1will lead me to Edom?

And will You not go forth with our armies, O God?
