< Psalms 108 >

1 A song or Psalme of David. O God, mine heart is prepared, so is my tongue: I will sing and giue praise.
O god, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.
2 Awake viole and harpe: I will awake early.
Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
3 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people, and I wil sing vnto thee among the nations.
I will praise you, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises to you among the nations.
4 For thy mercy is great aboue the heauens, and thy trueth vnto the clouds.
For your mercy is great above the heavens: and your truth reaches to the clouds.
5 Exalt thy self, O God, aboue the heauens, and let thy glorie be vpon all the earth,
Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens: and your glory above all the earth;
6 That thy beloued may be deliuered: helpe with thy right hand and heare me.
That your beloved may be delivered: save with your right hand, and answer me.
7 God hath spoken in his holinesse: therefore I will reioyce, I shall deuide Shechem and measure the valley of Succoth.
God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
8 Gilead shalbe mine, and Manasseh shalbe mine: Ephraim also shalbe the strength of mine head: Iuda is my lawgiuer.
Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of my head; Judah is my lawgiver;
9 Moab shalbe my washpot: ouer Edom wil I cast out my shoe: vpon Palestina wil I triumph.
Moab is my wash pot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
10 Who will leade mee into the strong citie? who will bring me vnto Edom?
Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
11 Wilt not thou, O God, which haddest forsaken vs, and diddest not goe foorth, O God, with our armies?
Will not you, O God, who have cast us off? and will not you, O God, go forth with our hosts?
12 Giue vs helpe against trouble: for vaine is the helpe of man.
Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
13 Through God we shall doe valiantly: for he shall treade downe our enemies.
Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
