Psalms 108

1 A song, a psalm of David. My heart is fixed, God; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises also with my honored heart.

A Song, a Psalm of David. My heart is fixed, O God: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms, even [with] my glory.

2 Wake up, lute and harp; I will wake up the dawn.

Awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.

3 I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations.

I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Jehovah; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations:

4 For your covenant faithfulness is great above the heavens; and your trustworthiness reaches to the skies.

For thy loving-kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is unto the clouds.

5 Be exalted, God, above the heavens, and may your glory be exalted over all the earth.

Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God, and thy glory above all the earth.

6 So that those you love may be rescued, rescue us with your right hand and answer me.

That thy beloved ones may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.

7 God has spoken in his holiness; “I will rejoice; I will divide Shechem and apportion 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, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is my helmet; Judah is my scepter.

Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;

9 Moab is my washbasin; over Edom I will throw my shoe; I will shout in triumph because of Philistia.

Moab is my wash-pot; upon Edom will I cast my sandal; over Philistia will I shout aloud.

10 Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me to Edom?”

Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me unto Edom?

11 God, have you not rejected us? You do not go into battle with our army.

[Wilt] not [thou], O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies?

12 Give us help against the enemy, for man's help is futile.

Give us help from trouble; for vain is man's deliverance.

13 We will triumph with God's help; he will trample down our enemies.

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