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 canticle of a psalm for David himself. My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: I will sing, and will give praise, with my glory.
2 Awake viole and harpe: I will awake early.
Arise, my glory; arise, psaltery and harp: I will arise in the morning early.
3 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people, and I wil sing vnto thee among the nations.
I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: and I will sing unto thee among the populations.
4 For thy mercy is great aboue the heauens, and thy trueth vnto the clouds.
For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth even unto the clouds.
5 Exalt thy self, O God, aboue the heauens, and let thy glorie be vpon all the earth,
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory over all the earth:
6 That thy beloued may be deliuered: helpe with thy right hand and heare me.
That thy beloved may be delivered. Save with thy right hand and hear 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 rejoice, and I will divide Sichem and I will mete out the vale of tabernacles.
8 Gilead shalbe mine, and Manasseh shalbe mine: Ephraim also shalbe the strength of mine head: Iuda is my lawgiuer.
Galaad is mine, and Manasses is mine and Ephraim the protection of my head. Juda is my king:
9 Moab shalbe my washpot: ouer Edom wil I cast out my shoe: vpon Palestina wil I triumph.
Moab the pot of my hope. Over Edom I will stretch out my shoe: the aliens are become my friends.
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 into 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 hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies?
12 Giue vs helpe against trouble: for vaine is the helpe of man.
O grant us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
13 Through God we shall doe valiantly: for he shall treade downe our enemies.
Through God we shall do mightily: and he will bring our enemies to nothing.
