Psalm 108

Praise And Supplication To God For Victory.

A Song. A Psalm of David. 1O God, my heart is steadfast [with confident faith];
I will sing, I will sing praises, even with my soul. 2Awake, harp and lyre;
I will awaken the dawn! 3I will praise and give thanks to You, O LORD, among the people;
And I will sing praises to You among the nations. 4For Your lovingkindness is great and higher than the heavens;
Your truth reaches to the skies. 5Be exalted [in majesty], O God, above the heavens,
And Your glory above all the earth. 6That Your beloved [ones] may be rescued,
Save with Your right hand, and answer me! 7God has spoken in His holiness:
“I will rejoice, I will portion out Shechem [as I divide Canaan among My people],
And measure out the Valley of Succoth. 8“Gilead is Mine, Manasseh is Mine;
Ephraim also is the helmet of My head [My stronghold, My defense];
Judah is My scepter. 9“Moab is My washbowl;
Over Edom I will throw My shoe [to show Edom is Mine];
Over Philistia I will shout [in triumph].” 10Who will bring me into the fortified city [of Petra]?
Who will lead me to Edom? 11Have You not rejected us, O God?
And will You not go out, O God, with our armies? 12Give us help against the adversary,
For deliverance by man is in vain [a worthless hope]. 13With God we will do valiantly,
For it is He who will trample down our enemies.
