< Psalms 108 >

1 A song or Psalme of David. O God, mine heart is prepared, so is my tongue: I will sing and giue praise.
A song. A Psalm of David. My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing and make music with all my being.
2 Awake viole and harpe: I will awake early.
Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.
3 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people, and I wil sing vnto thee among the nations.
I will praise You, O LORD, among the nations; I will sing Your praises among the peoples.
4 For thy mercy is great aboue the heauens, and thy trueth vnto the clouds.
For Your loving devotion extends beyond the heavens, and Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
5 Exalt thy self, O God, aboue the heauens, and let thy glorie be vpon all the earth,
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
6 That thy beloued may be deliuered: helpe with thy right hand and heare me.
Respond and save us with Your right hand, that Your beloved may be delivered.
7 God hath spoken in his holinesse: therefore I will reioyce, I shall deuide Shechem and measure the valley of Succoth.
God has spoken from His sanctuary: “I will triumph! I will parcel out Shechem and apportion the Valley of Succoth.
8 Gilead shalbe mine, and Manasseh shalbe mine: Ephraim also shalbe the strength of mine head: Iuda is my lawgiuer.
Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim is My helmet, Judah is My scepter.
9 Moab shalbe my washpot: ouer Edom wil I cast out my shoe: vpon Palestina wil I triumph.
Moab is My washbasin; upon Edom I toss My sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph.”
10 Who will leade mee into the strong citie? who will bring me vnto Edom?
Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
11 Wilt not thou, O God, which haddest forsaken vs, and diddest not goe foorth, O God, with our armies?
Have You not rejected us, O God? Will You no longer march out, O God, with our armies?
12 Giue vs helpe against trouble: for vaine is the helpe of man.
Give us aid against the enemy, for the help of man is worthless.
13 Through God we shall doe valiantly: for he shall treade downe our enemies.
With God we will perform with valor, and He will trample our enemies.
