 Moab is my wash&#8209;basin, on Edom I throw down my sandal to claim it, * and over Philistia will I shout in triumph.”

Who will lead me into the strong city? * who will bring me into Edom?

Have you not cast us off, O God? * you no longer go out, O God, with our armies.

Grant us your help against the enemy, * for vain is the help of man.

With God we will do valiant deeds, * and he shall tread our enemies under foot.

Hear my cry, O God, * and listen to my prayer.

I call upon you from the ends of the earth with heaviness in my heart; * set me upon the rock that is higher than I.

For you have been my refuge, * a strong tower against the enemy.

I will dwell in your house for ever; * I will take refuge under the cover of your wings.

For you, O God, have heard my vows; * you have granted me the heritage of those who fear your Name.

Add length of days to the king’s life; * let his years extend over many generations.
