Chapter 108

 {A Song, a Psalm of David.} My heart is fixed, O God: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms, even [with] my glory. 

 Awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn. 

 I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Jehovah; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations: 

 For thy loving-kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is unto the clouds. 

 Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God, and thy glory above all the earth. 

 That thy beloved ones may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me. 

 God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth. 

 Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver; 

 Moab is my wash-pot; upon Edom will I cast my sandal; over Philistia will I shout aloud. 

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

 [Wilt] not [thou], O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies? 

 Give us help from trouble; for vain is man's deliverance. 

 Through God we shall do valiantly; and he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
