Psalm 108

New Coverdale Version

O God, my heart is fixed, my heart is firmly fixed; * I will sing and give praise with the best that I have.

Awake, my soul; awake, lute and harp; * I myself will awaken the dawn.

I will give thanks unto you, O Lord, among the peoples, * and I will sing praises unto you among the nations,

For the greatness of your mercy reaches to the heavens, * and your faithfulness to the clouds.

Exalt yourself, O God, above the heavens; * let your glory be over all the earth.

That your beloved may be delivered, * save me by your right hand, and answer me.

God has spoken in his holiness: * “I will rejoice and divide Shechem, and parcel out the valley of Succoth.

Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; * Ephraim also is the helmet for my head; Judah is my scepter.

Moab is my wash-pot; over Edom will I cast my shoe; * over Philistia will I triumph.”

Who will lead me into the strong city, * and who will bring me into Edom?

Have you not forsaken us, O God? * And will you not, O God, go forth with our hosts?

O help us against the enemy, * for vain is the help of man.

Through God we shall do great acts, * for it is he who shall tread down our enemies.
