Chapter 108
Psalms
Verse 1My heart is steadfast, O God!I will sing and make melody with all my being!Verse 2Awake, O harp and lyre!I will awake the dawn!Verse 3I will give thanks to you, O LORD, among the peoples;I will sing praises to you among the nations.Verse 4For your steadfast love is great above the heavens;your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.Verse 5Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!Let your glory be over all the earth!Verse 6That your beloved ones may be delivered,give salvation by your right hand and answer me!Verse 7God has promised in his holiness:“With exultation I will divide up Shechemand portion out the Valley of Succoth.Verse 8Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine;Ephraim is my helmet,Judah my scepter.Verse 9Moab is my washbasin;upon Edom I cast my shoe;over Philistia I shout in triumph.”Verse 10Who will bring me to the fortified city?Who will lead me to Edom?Verse 11Have you not rejected us, O God?You do not go out, O God, with our armies.Verse 12Oh grant us help against the foe,for vain is the salvation of man!Verse 13With God we shall do valiantly;it is he who will tread down our foes.
