< Psalms 108 >

1 Song of a Psalm by David. O God, my heart is ready, my heart is ready; I will sing and sing psalms with my glory.
Canticum Psalmi ipsi David. Paratum cor meum Deus, paratum cor meum: cantabo, et psallam in gloria mea.
2 Awake, psaltery and harp; I will awake early.
Exurge gloria mea, exurge psalterium, et cithara: exurgam diluculo.
3 I will give thanks to thee, O Lord, among the people; I will sing praise to thee among the Gentiles.
Confitebor tibi in populis Domine: et psallam tibi in nationibus.
4 For thy mercy is great above the heavens, and thy truth [reaches] to the clouds.
Quia magna est super cælos misericordia tua: et usque ad nubes veritas tua:
5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; and thy glory above all the earth.
Exaltare super cælos Deus, et super omnem terram gloria tua:
6 That thy beloved [ones] may be delivered, save with thy right hand, and hear me. God has spoken in his sanctuary;
ut liberentur dilecti tui. Salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me:
7 I will be exalted, and will divide Sicima, and will measure out the valley of tents.
Deus locutus est in sancto suo: Exultabo, et dividam Sichimam, et convallem tabernaculorum dimetiar.
8 Galaad is mine; and Manasses is mine; and Ephraim is the help of mine head; Judas is my king;
Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses: et Ephraim susceptio capitis mei. Iuda rex meus:
9 Moab is the caldron of my hope; over Idumea will I cast my sandal; the Philistines are made subject to me.
Moab lebes spei meæ. In Idumæam extendam calceamentum meum: mihi alienigenæ amici facti sunt.
10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? or who will guide me to Idumea?
Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam? quis deducet me usque in Idumæam?
11 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast rejected us? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?
Nonne tu Deus, qui repulisti nos, et non exibis Deus in virtutibus nostris?
12 Give us help from tribulation: for vain is the help of man.
Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione: quia vana salus hominis.
13 Through God we shall do valiantly; and he will bring to nought our enemies.
In Deo faciemus virtutem: et ipse ad nihilum deducet inimicos nostros.
