108:1  This Psalm is composed of two other Psalms before the seven and fiftieth and the sixtieth.  The matter here contained is, 1 That David giveth himself with heart and voice to praise the Lord, 7 and assureth himself of the promise of God concerning his kingdom over Israel, and his power against other nations: 11 Who though he seem to forsake us for a time, yet he alone will in the end cast down our enemies. A song or Psalm of David. O God, mine heart is prepared, so is my tongue: I will sing and give praise.
108:2  Awake viol and harp, I will awake early.
108:3  I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people, and I will sing unto thee among the nations.
108:4  For thy mercy is great above the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
108:5  Exalt thyself, O God, above the heavens, and let thy glory be upon all the earth,
108:6  That thy beloved may be delivered: help with thy right hand and hear me.
108:7  God hath spoken in his holiness: therefore I will rejoice, I shall divide Shechem and measure the valley of Succoth.
108:8  Gilead shall be mine, and Manasseh shall be mine: Ephraim also shall be the strength of mine head: Judah is my lawgiver.
108:9  Moab shall be my washpot: over Edom will I cast out my shoe: upon Palestine will I triumph.
108:10  Who will lead me into the strong city? who will bring me unto Edom?
108:11  Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst forsaken us, and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies?
108:12  Give us help against trouble: for vain is the help of man.
108:13  Through God we shall do valiantly: for he shall tread down our enemies.
