1.3 KiB
1.3 KiB
Psalm 108
- My heart is confident in you, O God;
no wonder I can sing your praises with all my heart!
- Wake up, lyre and harp!
I will wake the dawn with my song.
- I will thank you, LORD, among all the people.
I will sing your praises among the nations.
- For your unfailing love is higher than the heavens.
Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
- Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens.
May your glory shine over all the earth.
- Now rescue your beloved people.
Answer and save us by your power.
- God has promised this by his holiness: "I will divide up Shechem with joy.
I will measure out the valley of Succoth.
- Gilead is mine,
and Manasseh, too.
Ephraim, my helmet, will produce my warriors,
and Judah, my scepter, will produce my kings.
- But Moab, my washbasin, will become my servant,
and I will wipe my feet on Edom
and shout in triumph over Philistia."
- Who will bring me into the fortified city?
Who will bring me victory over Edom?
- Have you rejected us, O God?
Will you no longer march with our armies?
- Oh, please help us against our enemies,
for all human help is useless.
- With God's help we will do mighty things,
for he will trample down our foes.
