108:1 <A Song. A Psalm. Of David.> O God, my heart is fixed; I will make songs and melody, even with my glory. 108:2 Give out your sounds, O corded instruments: the dawn will be awaking with my song. 108:3 I will give you praise, O Lord, among the peoples; I will make melody to you among the nations. 108:4 For your mercy is higher than the heavens: and your unchanging faith than the clouds. 108:5 Be lifted up, O God, higher than the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth. 108:6 Let your right hand be stretched out for salvation, and give me an answer, so that your loved ones may be safe from danger. 108:7 This is the word of the holy God: I will be glad; I will make Shechem a heritage, measuring out the valley of Succoth. 108:8 Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver; 108:9 Moab is my washpot; on Edom is the resting-place of my shoe; over Philistia will I send out a glad cry. 108:10 Who will take me into the strong town? who will be my guide into Edom? 108:11 Have you not sent us away from you, O God? and you go not out with our armies. 108:12 Give us help in our trouble; for there is no help in man. 108:13 With God we will do great things; for by him will our haters be crushed underfoot.
