Psalms 108

I will praise you among the peoples

My heart, O God, is steadfast; I will sing and make music with all my soul.a ²Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn. ³I will praise you, Lord, among the nations; I will sing of you among the peoples.

⁴For great is your love, higher than the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. ⁵Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth. ⁶Save us and help us with your right hand, that those you love may be delivered.

⁷God has spoken from his sanctuary: “In triumph I will parcel out Shechem and measure off the Valley of Sukkoth. ⁸Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah is my scepter. ⁹Moab is my washbasin, on Edom I toss my sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph.” ¹⁰Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?

¹¹Is it not you, God, you who have rejected us and no longer go out with our armies? ¹²Give us aid against the enemy, for human help is worthless. ¹³With God we will gain the victory, and he will trample down our enemies.
