Psalm 108
108
A Prayer for Help against the Foe
(Psalm 57.7-11; 60.5-12)
A Song or Psalm of David.
1O God, my heart is fixed;
I will sing and give praise,
even with my glory.
2Awake, psaltery and harp:
I myself will awake early.
3I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people:
and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
4For thy mercy is great above the heavens:
and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.
5Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens:
and thy glory above all the earth;
6that thy beloved may be delivered:
save with thy right hand, and answer me.
7God hath spoken in his holiness;
I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem,
and mete out the valley of Succoth.
8Gil´e-ad is mine; Manas´seh is mine;
E´phra-im also is the strength of mine head;
Judah is my lawgiver;
9Moab is my washpot;
over Edom will I cast out my shoe;
over Philis´ti-a will I triumph.
10Who 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?
12Give us help from trouble:
for vain is the help of man.
13Through God we shall do valiantly:
for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.

Psalms 108
108
A Prayer for Victory
A song of David.
1God, my heart is right.
I will sing and praise you with all my being.
2Wake up, harp and lyre!
I will wake up the dawn.
3Lord, I will praise you among the nations.
I will sing songs of praise about you to all the nations.
4Your love is so great that it is higher than the skies.
Your truth reaches to the clouds.
5God, you are supreme over the skies.
Let your glory be over all the earth.
6Answer us and save us by your power.
Then the people you love will be rescued.
7God has said from his Temple,
“When I win, I will divide Shechem
and cut up the Valley of Succoth.
8Gilead and Manasseh are mine.
Ephraim is like my helmet.
Judah holds my royal scepter.
9Moab is like my washbowl.
I throw my sandals at Edom.
I shout at Philistia.”
10Who will bring me to the strong, walled city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
11God, surely you have rejected us.
You do not go out with our armies.
12Help us fight the enemy.
Human help is useless.
13But we can win with God’s help.
He will defeat our enemies.
