Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.

That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.

God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;

Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me.

But for those who fear you, you have raised a banner(A)
    to be unfurled against the bow.[a]

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