Psalm 108 - The Scriptures 2009

¹ O Elohim, my heart is steadfast; I sing and give praise – even my esteem.

² Awake, harp and lyre! I awake the dawn.

³ I praise You, O יהוה, among peoples, And I sing praises to You among the nations.

⁴ For Your loving-commitment is great above the heavens, And Your truth reaches to the clouds.

⁵ Exalt Yourself above the heavens, O Elohim, And Your esteem above all the earth;

⁶ In order that those You love Might be delivered. Save with Your right hand, And answer me.

⁷ Elohim has spoken in His set-apartness, “I exult, I portion out Sheḵem, And I measure out the Valley of Sukkoth.

⁸ Gil‛aḏ is Mine, Menashsheh is Mine, And Ephrayim is My chief defence, Yehuḏah is My inscriber.

⁹ Mo’aḇ is My wash-pot, Over Eḏom I cast My shoe, Over Philistia I raise a shout.

¹⁰ Who would bring me into the strong city? Who shall lead me to Eḏom?

¹¹ Have You not rejected us, O Elohim? And You do not go out with our armies, O Elohim!

¹² Give us help from distress, For the help of man is naught.

¹³ In Elohim we do mightily, For it is He who treads down our adversaries.
