Psalms 108

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

“A song or psalm of David.” My heart is firm, O God; I will sing and give praise, even with my spirit.

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

Awake, psaltery and harp: I will wake up the morning-dawn.

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

I will give thee thanks among the people, O Lord: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

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

For great above the heavens is thy kindness, and thy truth reacheth even unto the skies.

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

Exalt thyself above the heavens, O God; and above all the earth thy glory.

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

In order that thy beloved may be delivered: help with thy right hand, and answer 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 exult, I will divide Shechem, and the valley of Succoth will I measure out.

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

Mine id Gil'ad, and mine is Menasseh; Ephraim also is the strong-hold of my head; of Judah are my chiefs.

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

Moab is my washpot; upon Edom will I cast my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.

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

Who will bring me into the fortified city? who will lead me as far as Edom?

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

Behold, it is thou, O God, who hast cast us off; and thou, O God, goest not forth with our armies.

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

Give us help against the assailant; 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 shall we do valiantly; for he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
