Psalm 108

Psalm 108

New International Version (NIV)

Psalm 108

Psalm 108^[a]

    A song. A psalm of David. ¹ My heart, O God, is steadfast;
   I will sing and make music with all my soul.
² Awake, harp and lyre!
   I will awaken the dawn.
³ I will praise you, LORD, among the nations;
   I will sing of you among the peoples.
⁴ For great is your love, higher than the heavens;
   your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
⁵ Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
   let your glory be over all the earth.
 ⁶ Save us and help us with your right hand,
   that those you love may be delivered.
⁷ God has spoken from his sanctuary:
   “In triumph I will parcel out Shechem
   and measure off the Valley of Sukkoth.
⁸ Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine;
   Ephraim is my helmet,
   Judah is my scepter.
⁹ Moab is my washbasin,
   on Edom I toss my sandal;
   over Philistia I shout in triumph.”
 ¹⁰ Who will bring me to the fortified city?
   Who will lead me to Edom?
¹¹ Is it not you, God, you who have rejected us
   and no longer go out with our armies?
¹² Give us aid against the enemy,
   for human help is worthless.
¹³ With God we will gain the victory,
   and he will trample down our enemies.
