Psalm 108
With God We Shall Do Valiantly
1. A Song. A Psalm of David. 1 My heart is steadfast, O God! 1 I will sing and make melody with all my being![a]
2. Awake, O harp and lyre! 2 I will awake the dawn!
3. I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples; 3 I will sing praises to you among the nations.
4. For your steadfast love is great above the heavens; 4 your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
5. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens! 5 Let your glory be over all the earth!
6. That your beloved ones may be delivered, 6 give salvation by your right hand and answer me!
7. God has promised in his holiness:[b] 7 “With exultation I will divide up Shechem 7 and portion out the Valley of Succoth.
8. Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; 8 Ephraim is my helmet, 8 Judah my scepter.
9. Moab is my washbasin; 9 upon Edom I cast my shoe; 9 over Philistia I shout in triumph.”
10. Who will bring me to the fortified city? 10 Who will lead me to Edom?
11. Have you not rejected us, O God? 11 You do not go out, O God, with our armies.
12. Oh grant us help against the foe, 12 for vain is the salvation of man!
13. With God we shall do valiantly; 13 it is he who will tread down our foes.
