< Psalms 108 >

1 A Song, a Psalm of David. My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises, even with my glory.
שִׁ֖יר מִזְמֹ֣ור לְדָוִֽד׃ נָכֹ֣ון לִבִּ֣י אֱלֹהִ֑ים אָשִׁ֥ירָה וַ֝אֲזַמְּרָ֗ה אַף־כְּבֹודִֽי׃
2 Awake, psaltery and harp; I will awake the dawn.
ע֭וּרָֽה הַנֵּ֥בֶל וְכִנֹּ֗ור אָעִ֥ירָה שָּֽׁחַר׃
3 I will give thanks unto Thee, O LORD, among the peoples; and I will sing praises unto Thee among the nations.
אֹודְךָ֖ בָעַמִּ֥ים ׀ יְהוָ֑ה וַ֝אֲזַמֶּרְךָ֗ בַּל־אֻמִּֽים׃
4 For Thy mercy is great above the heavens, and Thy truth reacheth unto the skies.
כִּֽי־גָדֹ֣ול מֵֽעַל־שָׁמַ֣יִם חַסְדֶּ֑ךָ וְֽעַד־שְׁחָקִ֥ים אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃
5 Be Thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; and Thy glory be above all the earth.
ר֣וּמָה עַל־שָׁמַ֣יִם אֱלֹהִ֑ים וְעַ֖ל כָּל־הָאָ֣רֶץ כְּבֹודֶֽךָ׃
6 That Thy beloved may be delivered, save with Thy right hand, and answer me.
לְ֭מַעַן יֵחָלְצ֣וּן יְדִידֶ֑יךָ הֹושִׁ֖יעָה יְמִֽינְךָ֣ וַעֲנֵֽנִי׃
7 God spoke in His holiness, that I would exult; that I would divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
אֱלֹהִ֤ים ׀ דִּבֶּ֥ר בְּקָדְשֹׁ֗ו אֶעְלֹ֥זָה אֲחַלְּקָ֥ה שְׁכֶ֑ם וְעֵ֖מֶק סֻכֹּ֣ות אֲמַדֵּֽד׃
8 Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of my head; Judah is my sceptre.
לִ֤י גִלְעָ֨ד ׀ לִ֤י מְנַשֶּׁ֗ה וְ֭אֶפְרַיִם מָעֹ֣וז רֹאשִׁ֑י יְ֝הוּדָ֗ה מְחֹקְקִֽי׃
9 Moab is my washpot; upon Edom do I cast my shoe; over Philistia do I cry aloud.
מֹואָ֤ב ׀ סִ֬יר רַחְצִ֗י עַל־אֱ֭דֹום אַשְׁלִ֣יךְ נַעֲלִ֑י עֲלֵֽי־פְ֝לֶ֗שֶׁת אֶתְרֹועָֽע׃
10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me unto Edom?
מִ֣י יֹ֭בִלֵנִי עִ֣יר מִבְצָ֑ר מִ֖י נָחַ֣נִי עַד־אֱדֹֽום׃
11 Hast not Thou cast us off, O God? and Thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts?
הֲלֹֽא־אֱלֹהִ֥ים זְנַחְתָּ֑נוּ וְֽלֹא־תֵצֵ֥א אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים בְּצִבְאֹתֵֽינוּ׃
12 Give us help against the adversary; for vain is the help of man.
הָֽבָה־לָּ֣נוּ עֶזְרָ֣ת מִצָּ֑ר וְ֝שָׁ֗וְא תְּשׁוּעַ֥ת אָדָֽם׃
13 Through God we shall do valiantly; for He it is that will tread down our adversaries.
בֵּֽאלֹהִ֥ים נַעֲשֶׂה־חָ֑יִל וְ֝ה֗וּא יָב֥וּס צָרֵֽינוּ׃
