That Your beloved ones may be delivered, save with Your right hand and answer us [or me].

God has spoken in His holiness [in His promises]: I will rejoice, I will divide and portion out [the land] Shechem and the Valley of Succoth [west to east].

Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is My helmet (the defense of My head); Judah is My scepter and My lawgiver.

Moab is My washpot [reduced to vilest servitude]; upon Edom I cast My shoe in triumph; over Philistia I raise the shout of victory.

Who will bring me [David] into the strong city [of Petra]? Who will lead me into Edom?

10 Have You not rejected us, O God? And will You not go forth, O God, with our armies?

11 O give us help against the adversary, for vain (ineffectual and to no purpose) is the help or salvation of man.

12 Through God we shall do valiantly, for He it is Who shall tread down our adversaries.

Save us and help us with your right hand,(A)
    that those you love(B) may be delivered.
God has spoken from his sanctuary:
    “In triumph I will parcel out Shechem(C)
    and measure off the Valley of Sukkoth.(D)
Gilead(E) is mine, and Manasseh is mine;
    Ephraim(F) is my helmet,
    Judah(G) is my scepter.(H)
Moab is my washbasin,
    on Edom I toss my sandal;
    over Philistia I shout in triumph.(I)

Who will bring me to the fortified city?
    Who will lead me to Edom?
10 Is it not you, God, you who have now rejected us
    and no longer go out with our armies?(J)
11 Give us aid against the enemy,
    for human help is worthless.(K)
12 With God we will gain the victory,
    and he will trample down our enemies.(L)
