8Gilead is mine, and Manasseh, too. Ephraim, my helmet, will produce my warriors, and Judah, my scepter, will produce my kings. | 8Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver; |

12Oh, please help us against our enemies, for all human help is useless. | 12Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man. |
13With God’s help we will do mighty things, for he will trample down our foes. | 13Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies. |
