< 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 fixed, O God: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms, even [with] my glory.
2 Awake viole and harpe: I will awake early.
Awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.
3 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people, and I wil sing vnto thee among the nations.
I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Jehovah; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations:
4 For thy mercy is great aboue the heauens, and thy trueth vnto the clouds.
For thy loving-kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is unto the clouds.
5 Exalt thy self, O God, aboue the heauens, and let thy glorie be vpon all the earth,
Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God, and thy glory above all the earth.
6 That thy beloued may be deliuered: helpe with thy right hand and heare me.
That thy beloved ones may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.
7 God hath spoken in his holinesse: therefore I will reioyce, I shall deuide Shechem and measure the valley of Succoth.
God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and mete out 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, Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;
9 Moab shalbe my washpot: ouer Edom wil I cast out my shoe: vpon Palestina wil I triumph.
Moab is my wash-pot; upon Edom will I cast my sandal; over Philistia will I shout aloud.
10 Who will leade mee into the strong citie? who will bring me vnto Edom?
Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me unto Edom?
11 Wilt not thou, O God, which haddest forsaken vs, and diddest not goe foorth, O God, with our armies?
[Wilt] not [thou], O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies?
12 Giue vs helpe against trouble: for vaine is the helpe of man.
Give us help from trouble; for vain is man's deliverance.
13 Through God we shall doe valiantly: for he shall treade downe our enemies.
Through God we shall do valiantly; and he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
