PSALM 108

The LORD Delivers His Beloved

Ode of a psalm to David.

1 [²is prepared ¹My heart], O God, [²is prepared ¹my heart]. I shall sing and strum in my glory. 2 Awake, O my glory! Awake, psaltery and harp! I will be awakened at dawn. 3 I will make acknowledgment to you among peoples, O lord; I shall strum to you among nations. 4 For great above the heavens is your mercy; and unto the clouds is your truth. 5 Be raised up high above the heavens, O God, and above all the earth with your glory! 6 so that [²should be rescued ¹your beloved]. Deliver with your right hand, and heed me! 7 God spoke in his holy place. I shall be raised up high, and I shall divide Shechem into parts; and the valley of the tents I will measure out. 8 Mine is Gilead; and mine is Manasseh; and Ephraim is the assistance of my head; 9 Judah is my king; Moab the kettle of my hope; upon Edom I will put my sandal; [³to me ¹the Philistines ²are submitted]. 10 Who shall take me away into a city of a citadel? or who shall guide me to Edom? 11 Is it not you, O God, the one thrusting us away? And will you not go forth, O God, with our forces? 12 Give to us help from out of affliction, for [³is vain ¹deliverance ²of man]! 13 In God we shall execute power, and he shall treat [²with contempt ¹our enemies].
