<< Psalms 108 NASB >>

God Praised and Supplicated to Give Victory.

A Song, a Psalm of David.

1My heart is steadfast, O God;
         I will sing, I will sing praises, even with my soul.

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

3I will give thanks to You, O LORD, among the peoples,
         And I will sing praises to You among the nations.

4For Your lovingkindness is great above the heavens,
         And Your truth reaches to the skies.

5Be exalted, O God, above the heavens,
         And Your glory above all the earth.

6That Your beloved may be delivered,
         Save with Your right hand, and answer me!

7God has spoken in His holiness:
         “I will exult, I will portion out Shechem
         And measure out the valley of Succoth.

8“Gilead is Mine, Manasseh is Mine;
         Ephraim also is the helmet of My head;
         Judah is My scepter.

9“Moab is My washbowl;
         Over Edom I shall throw My shoe;
         Over Philistia I will shout aloud.”

10Who will bring me into the besieged city?
         Who will lead me to Edom?

11Have not You Yourself, O God, rejected us?
         And will You not go forth with our armies, O God?

12Oh give us help against the adversary,
         For deliverance by man is in vain.

13Through God we will do valiantly,
         And it is He who shall tread down our adversaries.
