MY FAVORITE PSALMS
PART SIXTY ONE.
My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing. I will sing praises, even with my soul.
Awake harp and lyre; I will awaken the dawn!
I will give thanks to Thee, O Lord, among the peoples. And I will sing praises to Thee among the nations. For Thy loving kindness is great above the heavens; and Thy truth reaches to the skies.
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens, and Thy glory above all the earth. That Thy beloved may be delivered, Save with Thy right hand and answer me!
God has spoken in His holiness; "I will exult, I will portion out Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth. Gilead is Mine, Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the helmet of My head; Judah is My scepter, Moab is My washbowl; Over Edom I shall throw my shoe; Over Philistia I will shout out loud."
Who will bring me out of the besieged city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
Hast not Thou, Thyself, O God, rejected us?
And wilt Thou not go forth with our armies, O God?
O, give us help against the adversary; for deliverance by man is in vain. Through God we shall do valiantly; and it is He Who will tread down our adversaries.
O God of my praise do not be silent.
