PSALM 108
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Song or Psalm of David.
1My heart is fix'd, Lord; I will sing,
and with my glory praise.
2Awake up psaltery and harp;
myself I'll early raise.
3I'll praise thee 'mong the people, Lord;
'mong nations sing will I:
4For above heav'n thy mercy's great,
thy truth doth reach the sky.
5Be thou above the heavens, Lord,
exalted gloriously;
Thy glory all the earth above
be lifted up on high.
6That those who thy beloved are
delivered may be,
O do thou save with thy right hand,
and answer give to me.
7God in his holiness hath said,
Herein I will take pleasure;
Shechem I will divide, and forth
will Succoth's valley measure.
8Gilead I claim as mine by right;
Manasseh mine shall be;
Ephraim is of my head the strength;
Judah gives laws for me;
9Moab's my washing-pot; my shoe
I'll over Edom throw;
Over the land of Palestine
I will in triumph go.
10O who is he will bring me to
the city fortify'd?
O who is he that to the land
of Edom will me guide?
11O God, thou who hadst cast us off,
this thing wilt thou not do?
And wilt not thou, ev'n thou, O God,
forth with our armies go?
12Do thou from trouble give us help,
for helpless is man's aid.
13Through God we shall do valiantly;
our foes he shall down tread.

Tehillim (Psalms) 108
108
1O Elohim, my heart is steadfast; I sing and give praise – even my esteem.
2Awake, harp and lyre! I awake the dawn.
3I praise You, O יהוה, among peoples, And I sing praises to You among the nations.
4For Your loving-commitment is great above the heavens, And Your truth reaches to the clouds.
5Exalt Yourself above the heavens, O Elohim, And Your esteem above all the earth;
6In order that those You love Might be delivered. Save with Your right hand, And answer me.
7Elohim has spoken in His set-apartness, “I exult, I portion out Sheḵem, And I measure out the Valley of Sukkoth.
8Gil‛aḏ is Mine, Menashsheh is Mine, And Ephrayim is My chief defence, Yehuḏah is My inscriber.#See Gen. 49:10 and Psa. 60:7
9Mo’aḇ is My wash-pot, Over Eḏom I cast My shoe, Over Philistia I raise a shout.
10Who would bring me into the strong city? Who shall lead me to Eḏom?
11Have You not rejected us, O Elohim? And You do not go out with our armies, O Elohim!
12Give us help from distress, For the help of man is naught.
13In Elohim we do mightily, For it is He who treads down our adversaries.
