For my love they are my adversaries:
but I give myself unto prayer.
And they have rewarded me evil for good,
and hatred for my love.

Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;
For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me:
they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.

Give us help from trouble:
for vain is the help of man.
Through God we shall do valiantly:
for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.

Who will bring me into the strong city?
who will lead me into Edom?
Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off?
and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

God hath spoken in his holiness;
I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem,
and mete out the valley of Succoth.
Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine;
Ephraim also is the strength of mine head;
Judah is my lawgiver;

For thy mercy is great above the heavens:
and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens:
and thy glory above all the earth;

O God, my heart is fixed;
I will sing and give praise,
even with my glory.
Awake, psaltery and harp:
I myself will awake early.

Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction,
and maketh him families like a flock.
The righteous shall see it, and rejoice:
and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and suffereth not their cattle to decrease.

Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.
