Psalms 108

1 “A song or psalm of David.” My heart is firm, O God; I will sing and give praise, even with my spirit.

2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I will wake up the morning-dawn.

3 I will give thee thanks among the people, O Lord: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

4 For great above the heavens is thy kindness, and thy truth reacheth even unto the skies.

5 Exalt thyself above the heavens, O God; and above all the earth thy glory.

6 In order that thy beloved may be delivered: help with thy right hand, and answer me.

7 God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and the valley of Succoth will I measure out.

8 Mine id Gil'ad, and mine is Menasseh; Ephraim also is the strong-hold of my head; of Judah are my chiefs.

9 Moab is my washpot; upon Edom will I cast my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.

10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? who will lead me as far as Edom?

11 Behold, it is thou, O God, who hast cast us off; and thou, O God, goest not forth with our armies.

12 Give us help against the assailant; for vain is the help of man.

13 Through God shall we do valiantly; for he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
