Psalm 108 - King James Version - American Edition

A Prayer for Help against the Foe

A Song or Psalm of David.

¹ O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.

² Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

³ I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

⁴ For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.

⁵ Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;

⁶ that thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.

⁷ God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

⁸ Gil´e-ad is mine; Manas´seh is mine; E´phra-im also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;

⁹ Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philis´ti-a will I triumph.

¹⁰ Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom?

¹¹ Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? And wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

¹² Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

¹³ Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
