Amplified Bible
Psalms 108
Praise and Supplication to God for Victory.
1 O God, (C1)my heart is steadfast with confident faith;
I will sing, I will sing praises, even with my soul.
2 Awake, harp and lyre;
I will awaken the dawn!
3 I will praise and give thanks to You, O LORD, among the people;
And I will sing praises to You among the nations.
4 For Your (C1)lovingkindness is great and (C2)higher than the heavens;
Your truth reaches to the skies. (VR1)
5 (C1)Be exalted in majesty, O God, above the heavens,
And Your glory above all the earth.
6 (C1)That Your beloved ones may be rescued,
Save with Your right hand, and answer me!
7 God has spoken in His (F1)holiness:
"I will rejoice, I will portion out Shechem as I divide Canaan among My people,
And measure out the Valley of Succoth.
8 "Gilead is Mine, Manasseh is Mine;
Ephraim also is the helmet of My head My stronghold, My defense;
(C1)Judah is My (F1)scepter. (VR1)
9 "Moab is My washbowl;
Over Edom I will throw My shoe to show Edom is Mine;
Over Philistia I will shout in triumph."
10 (C1)Who will bring me into the fortified city of Petra?
Who will lead me to Edom?
11 Have You not (C1)rejected us, O God?
And will You not go out, O God, with our armies?
12 Give us help against the adversary,
For (C1)deliverance by man is in vain a worthless hope.
13 (F1)With God we will do valiantly,
For (C1)it is He who will trample down our enemies. (VR1)
