108

Psalm 108#108:0 Verses 1–5 are virtually identical in wording to Psalm 57:7–11; verses 6–13 are virtually identical in wording to Psalm 60:5–12.

A song; a psalm by David.

1My heart is confident, O God.

I want to sing and make music even with my soul.#108:1 Or “my glory.”

2Wake up, harp and lyre!

I want to wake up at dawn.

3I want to give thanks to you among the people, O Lord.

I want to make music to praise you among the nations

4because your mercy is higher than the heavens.

Your truth reaches the skies.

5May you be honored above the heavens, O God.

Let your glory extend over the whole earth.

6Save ⌞us⌟ with your powerful hand, and answer us

so that those who are dear to you may be rescued.

7God has promised the following through his holiness:

“I will triumph!

I will divide Shechem.

I will measure the valley of Succoth.

8Gilead is mine.

Manasseh is mine.

Ephraim is the helmet on my head.

Judah is my scepter.

9Moab is my washtub.

I will throw my shoe over Edom.

I will shout in triumph over Philistia.”

10Who will bring me into the fortified city?

Who will lead me to Edom?

11Isn’t it you, O God, who rejected us?

Isn’t it you, O God, who refused to accompany our armies?

12Give us help against the enemy

because human assistance is worthless.

13With God we will display great strength.

He will trample our enemies.
