< Psalms 108 >

1 A Song, a Psalm of David. My heart is fixed, O God: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms, even [with] my glory.
O GOD, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.
2 Awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.
Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
3 I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Jehovah; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations:
I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
4 For thy loving-kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is unto the clouds.
For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.
5 Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God, and thy glory above all the earth.
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;
6 That thy beloved ones may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.
That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.
7 God hath 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, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
8 Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;
Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
9 Moab is my wash-pot; upon Edom will I cast my sandal; over Philistia will I shout aloud.
Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
10 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me unto Edom?
Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
11 [Wilt] not [thou], O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go 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 hosts?
12 Give us help from trouble; for vain is man's deliverance.
Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
13 Through God we shall do valiantly; and he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
