< Psalms 108 >

1 O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.
A Song, a Psalm of David. My heart is fixed, O God; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises, even with my glory.
2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake right early.
3 I will praise thee, O Yhwh, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
I will give thanks unto thee, O Jehovah, among the peoples; And I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
4 For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.
For thy lovingkindness is great above the heavens; And thy truth [reacheth] unto the skies.
5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, And thy glory above all the earth.
6 That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.
That thy beloved may be delivered, Save with thy right hand, and answer us.
7 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out 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 is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of my head; Judah is my sceptre.
9 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
Moab is my washpot; Upon Edom will I cast my shoe; Over Philistia will I shout.
10 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who hath led me unto Edom?
11 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies?
Hast not thou cast us off, O God? And thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts.
12 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
Give us help against the adversary; For vain is the help of man.
13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
Through God we shall do valiantly: For he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
