< 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. Prepared is my heart, O God, I sing, yea, I sing praise, also my honour.
2 Awake viole and harpe: I will awake early.
Awake, psaltery and harp, I awake the dawn.
3 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people, and I wil sing vnto thee among the nations.
I thank Thee among peoples, O Jehovah, And I praise Thee among the nations.
4 For thy mercy is great aboue the heauens, and thy trueth vnto the clouds.
For great above the heavens [is] Thy kindness, And unto the clouds Thy truth.
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 above all the earth Thy honour.
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 us.
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 exult, I apportion Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure,
8 Gilead shalbe mine, and Manasseh shalbe mine: Ephraim also shalbe the strength of mine head: Iuda is my lawgiuer.
Mine [is] Gilead, mine [is] Manasseh, And Ephraim [is] the strength of my head, Judah [is] my lawgiver,
9 Moab shalbe my washpot: ouer Edom wil I cast out my shoe: vpon Palestina wil I triumph.
Moab [is] a pot for my washing, Upon Edom I cast my shoe, Over Philistia I shout habitually.
10 Who will leade mee into the strong citie? who will bring me vnto Edom?
Who doth bring me in to the fenced city? Who hath led me unto Edom?
11 Wilt not thou, O God, which haddest forsaken vs, and diddest not goe foorth, O God, with our armies?
Hast not Thou, O God, cast us off? And Thou goest not out, O God, with our hosts!
12 Giue vs helpe against trouble: for vaine is the helpe of man.
Give to us help from adversity, And vain is the salvation of man.
13 Through God we shall doe valiantly: for he shall treade downe our enemies.
In God we do mightily, And He doth tread down our adversaries!
