Psalm 108 (107)
Song of victory.
2 My heart is ready, O God! I will sing praise and make music. Awake my soul!
3 Awake, harp and lyre! I will awake the dawn.
4 I will thank you, O Lord, among the nations. I will sing praise to you among the peoples.
5 For great is your love above the heavens, your faithfulness beyond the skies.
6 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over the earth.
7 Give help and save us by your right hand, and rescue those you love.
8 God has spoken in his sanctuary: “In triumph I will divide up Shechem and parcel out the Valley of Succoth.
9 Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my scepter.
10 Moab is my washbasin; upon Edom I cast my sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph.”
11 Who will take me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
12 O God! Have you really rejected us? You no longer go with our armies.
13 Give us aid against the foe, for the help of mortals is not worth a straw.
14 With God we will gain victory; he will crush the enemy for us.
