Psalms 108

My Heart Is Steadfast, O God

(Psalm 57:1–11; Psalm 60:1–12)

1A song, a psalm of David.

2My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing and I will sing praises—also my glory.
3Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.
4I will give you thanks among the peoples, O LORD, and I will sing praises to you among the nations.
5For great above the heavens is your lovingkindness, and to the skies your truth.
6Be exalted above the heavens, O God, and above all the earth your glory.
7That your beloved ones may be delivered, save^a with your right hand, and answer me.
8God has spoken in his holiness: I will exult; I will divide Shechem, and the valley of Succoth I will measure out.
9Mine is Gilead, mine is Manasseh; and Ephraim is the stronghold of my head, Judah is my scepter.
10Moab is my washpot; upon Edom I will cast my sandal; over Philistia I will shout in triumph.
11Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
12Have you not, O God, rejected us? And you do not go out, O God, with our hosts.
13Give us help from distress, for vain is the deliverance of man^b.
14In God we will do valiantly, and he, he will tread down our foes.
