< 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 prepared, O God, I sing, indeed, I sing praise, also my glory.
2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
Awake, stringed instrument and harp, I awake the dawn.
3 I will praise thee, O Yhwh, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
I thank You among peoples, O YHWH, And I praise You among the nations.
4 For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.
For Your kindness [is] great above the heavens, And Your truth to the clouds.
5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;
Be exalted above the heavens, O God, And Your glory above all the earth.
6 That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.
That Your beloved ones may be delivered, Save [with] Your 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 has spoken in His holiness: I exult, I apportion Shechem, And I measure 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, And Ephraim [is] the strength of My head, Judah [is] My lawgiver,
9 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
Moab [is] a pot for My washing, On Edom I cast My shoe, Over Philistia I habitually shout.
10 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
Who brings me [into] the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?
11 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies?
Have You not, O God, cast us off? And You do not go out, O God, with our hosts!
12 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
Give to us help from adversity, And the salvation of man is vain.
13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
We do mightily in God, And He treads down our adversaries!
