< Psalms 108 >

1 Song of a Psalm by David. O God, my heart is ready, my heart is ready; I will sing and sing psalms with my glory.
Canticum Psalmi, ipsi David. Paratum cor meum, Deus, paratum cor meum; cantabo, et psallam in gloria mea.
2 Awake, lute and harp; I will awake early.
Exsurge, gloria mea; exsurge, psalterium et cithara; exsurgam diluculo.
3 I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the people; I will sing praise to you among the Gentiles.
Confitebor tibi in populis, Domine, et psallam tibi in nationibus:
4 For your mercy is great above the heavens, and your truth [reaches] to the clouds.
quia magna est super cælos misericordia tua, et usque ad nubes veritas tua.
5 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.
Exaltare super cælos, Deus, et super omnem terram gloria tua:
6 That your beloved [ones] may be delivered, save with your right hand, and hear me. God has spoken in his sanctuary;
ut liberentur dilecti tui. Salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me.
7 I will be exalted, and will divide Sicima, and will measure out the valley of tents.
Deus locutus est in sancto suo: Exsultabo, et dividam Sichimam; et convallem tabernaculorum dimetiar.
8 Galaad is mine; and Manasses is mine; and Ephraim is the help of mine head; Judas is my king;
Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses, et Ephraim susceptio capitis mei. Juda rex meus;
9 Moab is the caldron of my hope; over Idumea will I cast my sandal; the Philistines are made subject to me.
Moab lebes spei meæ: in Idumæam extendam calceamentum meum; mihi alienigenæ amici facti sunt.
10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? or who will guide me to Idumea?
Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam? quis deducet me usque in Idumæam?
11 Will not you, O God, who have rejected us? and will not you, O God, go forth with our hosts?
nonne tu, Deus, qui repulisti nos? et non exibis, Deus, in virtutibus nostris?
12 Give us help from tribulation: for vain is the help of man.
Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione, quia vana salus hominis.
13 Through God we shall do valiantly; and he will bring to nothing our enemies.
In Deo faciemus virtutem; et ipse ad nihilum deducet inimicos nostros.
