Psalms, Chapter 108

  
1. A song or Psalme of David. O God, mine heart is prepared, so is my tongue: I will sing and giue praise.
  
2. Awake viole and harpe: I will awake early.
  
3. I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people, and I wil sing vnto thee among the nations.
  
4. For thy mercy is great aboue the heauens, and thy trueth vnto the clouds.
  
5. Exalt thy self, O God, aboue the heauens, and let thy glorie be vpon all the earth,
  
6. That thy beloued may be deliuered: helpe with thy right hand and heare me.
  
7. God hath spoken in his holinesse: therefore I will reioyce, I shall deuide Shechem and measure the valley of Succoth.
  
8. Gilead shalbe mine, and Manasseh shalbe mine: Ephraim also shalbe the strength of mine head: Iuda is my lawgiuer.
  
9. Moab shalbe my washpot: ouer Edom wil I cast out my shoe: vpon Palestina wil I triumph.
  
10. Who will leade mee into the strong citie? who will bring me vnto Edom?
  
11. Wilt not thou, O God, which haddest forsaken vs, and diddest not goe foorth, O God, with our armies?
  
12. Giue vs helpe against trouble: for vaine is the helpe of man.
  
13. Through God we shall doe valiantly: for he shall treade downe our enemies.
