Psalms 108

1 A song. A Psalm of David. My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing and make music with all my being.

2 Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.

3 I will praise You, O LORD, among the nations; I will sing Your praises among the peoples.

4 For Your loving devotion extends beyond the heavens, and Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.

6 Respond and save us with Your right hand, that Your beloved may be delivered.

7 God has spoken from His sanctuary: “I will triumph! I will parcel out Shechem and apportion the Valley of Succoth.

8 Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim is My helmet, Judah is My scepter.

9 Moab is My washbasin; upon Edom I toss My sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph.”

10 Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?

11 Have You not rejected us, O God? Will You no longer march out, O God, with our armies?

12 Give us aid against the enemy, for the help of man is worthless.

13 With God we will perform with valor, and He will trample our enemies.

1 ¶ A Song [or] Psalm of David. O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.

2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I [myself] will awake early.

3 I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

4 For thy mercy [is] great above the heavens: and thy truth [reacheth] unto the clouds.

5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;

6 ¶ That thy beloved may be delivered: save [with] thy right hand, and answer me.

7 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

8 Gilead [is] mine; Manasseh [is] mine; Ephraim also [is] the strength of mine head; Judah [is] my lawgiver;

9 Moab [is] my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.

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

11 [Wilt] not [thou], O God, [who] hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

12 Give us help from trouble: for vain [is] the help of man.

13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he [it is that] shall tread down our enemies.

1 a psalm song of David.

2 God, I am in earnest; I will sing and write, my glory also. Come, psalteries and harps! I will be up early.

4 I will give thee thanks, O LORD, among the nations; I will sing praise unto thee among the people.

5 For thy mercy reacheth as far as the heavens, and thy truth as far as the clouds go.

6 Exalt yourself, O God, above the heavens, and your glory above all the earth,

7 That thy dear friends may be done. Help with thy right hand, and hear me.

8 God speaketh in his sanctuary: I am glad, and will divide Shechem, and measure the valley of Shushoth.

9 Gilead is mine, Manasseh also is mine, and Ephraim is the power of my head; Judah is my prince,

10 Moab is my washing-pot; I will stretch out my shoe upon Edom; upon the Philistines will I exult.

11 Who will lead me into a strong city? Who will lead me to Edom?

12 Wilt thou not do it, O God, which hast cast us off, and wilt thou not go forth, O God, with our host?

13 give us help in trouble, for the help of men is of no avail.

14 With God we will do deeds. He will trample under our enemies.
