108
A Plea for Victory
A song. A Davidic psalm.
1My heart is confident, God; # Some Hb mss, LXX, Syr add my heart is confident
I will sing; I will sing praises
with the whole of my being. # Lit praises, even my glory # Ps 59:17; 112:7
2Wake up, harp and lyre!
I will wake up the dawn. # Jdg 5:12; Ps 33:2; 81:2
3I will praise You, Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing praises to You among the nations. # 2Sm 22:50; Ps 9:11; 18:49
4For Your faithful love is higher than the heavens,
and Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. # Ps 36:5; 103:11; Lm 3:22-23
5God, be exalted above the heavens, # Ps 113:4
and let Your glory be over the whole earth. # Ps 57:7-11
6Save with Your right hand and answer me
so that those You love may be rescued. # Ps 17:7; 20:6; 138:7
7God has spoken in His sanctuary: # Or has promised by His holy nature
“I will triumph!
I will divide up Shechem. # Gn 12:6; 33:18
I will apportion the Valley of Succoth. # Gn 33:17
8Gilead is Mine, Manasseh is Mine,
and Ephraim is My helmet; # Dt 33:17; Jos 13:31
Judah is My scepter. # Gn 49:10
9Moab is My washbasin; # 2Sm 8:2
I throw My sandal on Edom. # 2Sm 8:14
I shout in triumph over Philistia.” # 2Sm 8:1
10Who will bring me to the fortified city?
Who will lead me to Edom? # Jr 1:18
11God, haven’t You rejected us?
God, You do not march out with our armies. # Ps 44:9
12Give us aid against the foe,
for human help is worthless. # Ps 146:3
13With God we will perform valiantly; # Nm 24:18; Ps 44:5; 118:15-16
He will trample our foes. # Ps 60:5-12

Psalm 108
108
With God We Shall Do Valiantly
A Song. A Psalm of David.
1 # For ver. 1-5, see Ps. 57:7-11 My heart is steadfast, O God!
I will sing and make melody with all my being!#108:1 Hebrew with my glory
2Awake, O harp and lyre!
I will awake the dawn!
3I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing praises to you among the nations.
4For your steadfast love is great #[Ps. 113:4]above the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
5Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
Let your glory be over all the earth!
6 # For ver. 6-13, see Ps. 60:5-12 That your beloved ones may be delivered,
give salvation by your right hand and answer me!
7God has promised in his holiness:#108:7 Or sanctuary
“With exultation I will divide up Shechem
and portion out the Valley of Succoth.
8Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine;
Ephraim is my helmet,
Judah my scepter.
9Moab is my washbasin;
upon Edom I cast my shoe;
# [Ps. 60:8] over Philistia I shout in triumph.”
10Who will bring me to the fortified city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
11Have you not rejected us, O God?
You do not go out, O God, with our armies.
12Oh grant us help against the foe,
for vain is the salvation of man!
13With God we shall do valiantly;
it is he who will tread down our foes.
