Psalms



Psalm 108

A Song or Psalm of David.

   1 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.
