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. Prepared is my heart, O God, I sing, yea, I sing praise, also my honour.
2 Wake up, lute and harp; I will wake up the dawn.
Awake, psaltery and harp, I awake the dawn.
3 I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations.
I thank Thee among peoples, O Jehovah, And I praise Thee among the nations.
4 For your covenant faithfulness is great above the heavens; and your trustworthiness reaches to the skies.
For great above the heavens [is] Thy kindness, And unto the clouds Thy truth.
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 above all the earth Thy honour.
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 us.
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 exult, I apportion Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure,
8 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is my helmet; Judah is my scepter.
Mine [is] Gilead, mine [is] Manasseh, And Ephraim [is] the strength of my head, Judah [is] my lawgiver,
9 Moab is my washbasin; over Edom I will throw my shoe; I will shout in triumph because of Philistia.
Moab [is] a pot for my washing, Upon Edom I cast my shoe, Over Philistia I shout habitually.
10 Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me to Edom?”
Who doth bring me in to the fenced city? Who hath led me unto Edom?
11 God, have you not rejected us? You do not go into battle with our army.
Hast not Thou, O God, cast us off? And Thou goest not out, O God, with our hosts!
12 Give us help against the enemy, for man's help is futile.
Give to us help from adversity, And vain is the salvation of man.
13 We will triumph with God's help; he will trample down our enemies.
In God we do mightily, And He doth tread down our adversaries!
