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.

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.

2 Awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.

Awake, lute and harp; I 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 give thanks to you, O Lord, among the people; I will sing praise to you among the Gentiles.

4 For thy loving-kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is unto the clouds.

For your mercy is great above the heavens, and your truth [reaches] to the clouds.

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

Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.

6 That thy beloved ones may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.

That your beloved [ones] may be delivered, save with your right hand, and hear me. God has spoken in his sanctuary;

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

I will be exalted, and will divide Sicima, and will measure out the valley of tents.

8 Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;

Galaad is mine; and Manasses is mine; and Ephraim is the help of mine head; Judas is my king;

9 Moab is my wash-pot; upon Edom will I cast my sandal; over Philistia will I shout aloud.

Moab is the caldron of my hope; over Idumea will I cast my sandal; the Philistines are made subject to me.

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

Who will bring me into the fortified city? or who will guide me to Idumea?

11 [Wilt] not [thou], O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies?

Will not you, O God, who have rejected us? and will not you, O God, go forth with our hosts?

12 Give us help from trouble; for vain is man's deliverance.

Give us help from tribulation: 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; and he will bring to nothing our enemies.
