PSALM 108
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Song or Psalm of David.
1My heart is fix'd, Lord; I will sing,
and with my glory praise.
2Awake up psaltery and harp;
myself I'll early raise.
3I'll praise thee 'mong the people, Lord;
'mong nations sing will I:
4For above heav'n thy mercy's great,
thy truth doth reach the sky.
5Be thou above the heavens, Lord,
exalted gloriously;
Thy glory all the earth above
be lifted up on high.
6That those who thy beloved are
delivered may be,
O do thou save with thy right hand,
and answer give to me.
7God in his holiness hath said,
Herein I will take pleasure;
Shechem I will divide, and forth
will Succoth's valley measure.
8Gilead I claim as mine by right;
Manasseh mine shall be;
Ephraim is of my head the strength;
Judah gives laws for me;
9Moab's my washing-pot; my shoe
I'll over Edom throw;
Over the land of Palestine
I will in triumph go.
10O who is he will bring me to
the city fortify'd?
O who is he that to the land
of Edom will me guide?
11O God, thou who hadst cast us off,
this thing wilt thou not do?
And wilt not thou, ev'n thou, O God,
forth with our armies go?
12Do thou from trouble give us help,
for helpless is man's aid.
13Through God we shall do valiantly;
our foes he shall down tread.

Psalms 108
108
A Song [or] Psalm (sacred song about or to God) of David [Beloved].
1O God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.
2Awake, Psaltery (stringed instrument, like an harp) and harp: I [myself] will awake early.
3I will praise youi, O Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], among the people: and I will sing praises unto youi among the nations.
4For youri mercy [is] great above the heavens: and youri truth [reaches] unto the clouds.
5Be youi exalted, O God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], above the heavens: and youri glory above all the earth;
6That youri beloved may be delivered: save [with] youri right hand, and answer me.
7God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Sh’khem [Shoulder], and measure (deal out) out the valley of Sukkot [Booths].
8Gil’ad [Rocky Region] [is] mine; M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] [is] mine; Efrayim [Doubly Fruitful] also [is] the strength of mine head; Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] [is] my lawgiver;
9Mo’av [Seed of my Father] [is] my washpot; over Edom [Red] will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
10Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom [Red]?
11 [Will] not [youi], O God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], [who] have cast us off? and will not youi, O God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], go forth with our hosts?
12Give us help from trouble: for vain [is] the help of man.
13Through God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] we shall do valiantly: for he [it is that] shall tread down our enemies.
