Psalms 108

1 My heart is fixed, O God, I will sing, yea, I will sing praises, even with my glory.

A canticle of a psalm for David himself. My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: I will sing, and will give praise, with my glory.

2 Awake, psaltery and harp. I myself will awake right early.

Arise, my glory; arise, psaltery and harp: I will arise in the morning early.

3 I will give thanks to thee, O Jehovah, among the peoples, and I will sing praises to thee among the nations.

I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: and I will sing unto thee among the populations.

4 For thy loving kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is to the skies.

For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth even unto the clouds.

5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory above all the earth.

Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory over all the earth:

6 That thy beloved may be delivered, save with thy right hand, and answer us.

That thy beloved may be delivered. Save with thy right hand and hear me.

7 God has spoken in his holiness. I will exult. I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

God hath spoken in his holiness. I will rejoice, and I will divide Sichem and I will mete out the vale of tabernacles.

8 Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is the defense of my head. Judah is my scepter.

Galaad is mine, and Manasses is mine and Ephraim the protection of my head. Juda is my king:

9 Moab is my wash pot. Upon Edom I will cast my shoe. Over Philistia I will shout.

Moab the pot of my hope. Over Edom I will stretch out my shoe: the aliens are become my friends.

10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?

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

11 Have thou not cast us off, O God? And thou go not forth, O God, with our armies.

Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies?

12 Give us help against the adversary, for vain is the help of man.

O grant us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

13 Through God we shall do valiantly, for he it is who will tread down our adversaries.

Through God we shall do mightily: and he will bring our enemies to nothing.
