Chapter 108 :

Praise and Prayer for Victory

A Song. A Psalm of David.

1 My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast;
I will sing and make melody.
Awake, my soul!

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

3 I will give thanks to you, O LORD, among the peoples,
and I will sing praises to you among the nations.

4 For your steadfast love is higher than the heavens,
and your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens,
and let your glory be over all the earth.

6 Give victory with your right hand, and answer me,
so that those whom you love may be rescued.

7 God has promised in his sanctuary:
“With exultation I will divide up Shechem,
and portion out the Vale of Succoth.

8 Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine;
Ephraim is my helmet;
Judah is my scepter.

9 Moab is my washbasin;
on Edom I hurl my shoe;
over Philistia I shout in triumph.”

10 Who will bring me to the fortified city?
Who will lead me to Edom?

11 Have you not rejected us, O God?
You do not go out, O God, with our armies.

12 O grant us help against the foe,
for human help is worthless.

13 With God we shall do valiantly;
it is he who will tread down our foes.
