Chapter 108
|
1
|
O god, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise,
even with my glory. |
2
|
Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early. |
3
|
I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will
sing praises unto thee among the nations. |
4
|
For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth
reacheth unto the clouds. |
5
|
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory
above all the earth; |
6
|
That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right
hand, and answer me. |
7
|
God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will
divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth. |
8
|
Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the
strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver; |
9
|
Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe;
over Philistia will I triumph. |
10
|
Who 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? |
12
|
Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man. |
13
|
Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that
shall tread down our enemies. |
