The Psalms

Psalm 108

A Song, A Psalm of David.

 ^108:1My heart is fixed, O God; I will sing, yea,

 I will sing praises, even with my glory.

 ^108:2Awake, psaltery and harp:

 I myself will awake right early.

 ^108:3I will give thanks unto thee, O Jehovah, among the peoples;

 And I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

 ^108:4For thy lovingkindness is great above the heavens;

 And thy truth reacheth unto the skies.

 ^108:5Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens,

 And thy glory above all the earth.

 ^108:6That thy beloved may be delivered,

 Save with thy right hand, and answer us.

 ^108:7God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult;

 I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

 ^108:8Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine;

 Ephraim also is the defence of my head;

 Judah is my sceptre.

 ^108:9Moab is my washpot;

 Upon Edom will I cast my shoe;

 Over Philistia will I shout.

 ^108:10Who will bring me into the fortified city?

 Who hath led me unto Edom?

 ^108:11 Hast not thou cast us off, O God?

 And thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts.

 ^108:12Give us help against the adversary;

 For vain is the help of man.

 ^108:13Through God we shall do valiantly:

 For he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
