< Psalms 108 >
1 A SONG. A PSALM OF DAVID. My heart is prepared, O God, I sing, indeed, I sing praise, also my glory.
2 Awake, stringed instrument and harp, I awake the dawn.
3 I thank You among peoples, O YHWH, And I praise You among the nations.
4 For Your kindness [is] great above the heavens, And Your truth to the clouds.
5 Be exalted above the heavens, O God, And Your glory above all the earth.
6 That Your beloved ones may be delivered, Save [with] Your right hand, and answer us.
7 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, And Ephraim [is] the strength of My head, Judah [is] My lawgiver,
9 Moab [is] a pot for My washing, On Edom I cast My shoe, Over Philistia I habitually shout.
10 Who brings me [into] the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?
11 Have You not, O God, cast us off? And You do not go out, O God, with our hosts!
12 Give to us help from adversity, And the salvation of man is vain.
13 We do mightily in God, And He treads down our adversaries!
