| Chapter 108 |
1 |
A Song, a Psalm of David. Prepared is my heart, O God, I sing, yea, I sing praise, also my honour. |
2 |
Awake, psaltery and harp, I awake the dawn. |
3 |
I thank Thee among peoples, O Jehovah, And I praise Thee among the nations. |
4 |
For great above the heavens is Thy kindness, And unto the clouds Thy truth. |
5 |
Be Thou exalted above the heavens, O God, And above all the earth Thy honour. |
6 |
That Thy beloved ones may be delivered, Save with Thy right hand, and answer us. |
7 |
God hath spoken in His holiness: I exult, I apportion Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure, |
8 |
Mine is Gilead, mine is Manasseh, And Ephraim is the strength of my head, Judah is my lawgiver, |
9 |
Moab is a pot for my washing, Upon Edom I cast my shoe, Over Philistia I shout habitually. |
10 |
Who doth bring me in to the fenced city? Who hath led me unto Edom? |
11 |
Hast not Thou, O God, cast us off? And Thou goest not out, O God, with our hosts! |
12 |
Give to us help from adversity, And vain is the salvation of man. |
13 |
In God we do mightily, And He doth tread down our adversaries! |
