| Chapter 108 |
1 |
My heart is steadfast, God. I will sing and I will make music with my soul. |
2 |
Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn. |
3 |
I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations. I will sing praises to you among the peoples. |
4 |
For your lovingkindness is great above the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies. |
5 |
Be exalted, God, above the heavens, Let your glory be over all the earth. |
6 |
That your beloved may be delivered, Save with your right hand, and answer us. |
7 |
God has spoken from his sanctuary: "In triumph, I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth. |
8 |
Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is my helmet. Judah is my scepter. |
9 |
Moab is my wash pot. I will toss my sandal on Edom. I will shout over Philistia." |
10 |
Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom? |
11 |
Haven`t you rejected us, God? You don`t go forth, God, with our armies. |
12 |
Give us help against the enemy, For the help of man is vain. |
13 |
Through God, we will do valiantly. For it is he who will tread down our enemies. Psalm 109 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. |
