Psalm 108

¹   My heart is steadfast, God.
    I will sing and I will make music with my soul.
² Wake up, harp and lyre!
    I will wake up the dawn.
³ I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations.
    I will sing praises to you among the peoples.
⁴ For your loving kindness is great above the heavens.
    Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
⁵ Be exalted, God, above the heavens!
    Let your glory be over all the earth.
⁶ That your beloved may be delivered,
    save with your right hand, and answer us.
⁷ God has spoken from his sanctuary: “In triumph,
    I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.
⁸ Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine.
    Ephraim also is my helmet.
    Judah is my scepter.
⁹ Moab is my wash pot.
    I will toss my sandal on Edom.
    I will shout over Philistia.”
¹⁰ Who will bring me into the fortified city?
    Who has led me to Edom?
¹¹ Haven’t you rejected us, God?
    You don’t go out, God, with our armies.
¹² Give us help against the enemy,
    for the help of man is vain.
¹³ Through God, we will do valiantly.
    For it is he who will tread down our enemies.
