Psalm 108

English Standard Version

With God We Shall Do Valiantly

A Song. A Psalm of David.

108 ^(A)My heart is steadfast, O God!
    I will sing and make melody with all my being!^[a]
²Awake, O harp and lyre!
    I will awake the dawn!
³I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;
    I will sing praises to you among the nations.
⁴For your steadfast love is great ^(B)above the heavens;
    your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

⁵Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
Let your glory be over all the earth!
⁶^(C)That your beloved ones may be delivered,
give salvation by your right hand and answer me!

⁷God has promised in his holiness:^[b]
    “With exultation I will divide up Shechem
    and portion out the Valley of Succoth.
⁸Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine;
    Ephraim is my helmet,
    Judah my scepter.
⁹Moab is my washbasin;
    upon Edom I cast my shoe;
    ^(D)over Philistia I shout in triumph.”

¹⁰Who will bring me to the fortified city?
    Who will lead me to Edom?
¹¹Have you not rejected us, O God?
    You do not go out, O God, with our armies.
¹²Oh grant us help against the foe,
    for vain is the salvation of man!
¹³With God we shall do valiantly;
    it is he who will tread down our foes.

Jesus Prays in Gethsemane

³²^(A)And they went ^(B)to a place called Gethsemane. And he said to his disciples, “Sit here while I pray.” ³³And he took with him ^(C)Peter and James and John, and began ^(D)to be greatly distressed and troubled. ³⁴And he said to them, ^(E)“My soul is very sorrowful, even to death. Remain here and ^(F)watch.”^[a] ³⁵And going a little farther, he fell on the ground ^(G)and prayed that, if it were possible, ^(H)the hour might pass from him. ³⁶And he said, ^(I)“Abba, Father, ^(J)all things are possible for you. Remove ^(K)this cup from me. ^(L)Yet not what I will, but what you will.” ³⁷And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, “Simon, are you asleep? Could you not watch one hour? ³⁸^(M)Watch and ^(N)pray that you may not ^(O)enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” ³⁹And again he went away and prayed, ^(P)saying the same words. ⁴⁰And again he came and found them sleeping, for ^(Q)their eyes were very heavy, and ^(R)they did not know what to answer him. ⁴¹And he came the third time and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? ^(S)It is enough; ^(T)the hour has come. ^(U)The Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. ⁴²Rise, let us be going; see, my betrayer is at hand.”
