Psalm 108
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Psalm 108[a]
Prayer for Victory
1 A song; a psalm of David.
I
2 My heart is steadfast, God;(A)
my heart is steadfast.
Let me sing and chant praise.
3 Awake, lyre and harp!
I will wake the dawn.(B)
4 I will praise you among the peoples, Lord;
I will chant your praise among the nations.(C)
5 For your mercy is greater than the heavens;
your faithfulness, to the skies.(D)
II
6 Appear on high over the heavens, God;
your glory above all the earth.
7 Help with your right hand and answer us
that your loved ones may escape.
8 God speaks in his holiness:[b](E)
“I will exult, I will apportion Shechem;
the valley of Succoth I will measure out.
9 Gilead is mine, mine is Manasseh;
Ephraim is the helmet for my head,
Judah, my scepter.
10 Moab is my washbowl;
upon Edom I cast my sandal;(F)
I will shout in triumph over Philistia.”
11 Who will bring me to the fortified city?
Who will lead me into Edom?
12 Was it not you who rejected us, God?
Do you no longer march with our armies?(G)
13 Give us aid against the foe;
worthless is human help.
14 We will triumph with the help of God,
who will trample down our foes.
Footnotes
- Psalm 108 A prayer compiled from two other Psalms: Ps 108:2–6 are virtually the same as Ps 57:8–12; Ps 108:7–14 are the same as Ps 60:7–14. An old promise of salvation (Ps 108:8–10) is combined with a confident assurance (Ps 108:2–6, 13) and petition (Ps 108:7, 12–13).
- 108:8 Holiness: may also be translated as “sanctuary” or as referring to God’s heavenly abode.
Mga Awit 108
Magandang Balita Biblia
Papuri at Panalangin ng Tagumpay(A)
Awit ni David.
108 Nahahanda ako ngayon, O Diyos, ako ay handa na,
na magpuri at umawit ng awiting masisigla!
Gumising ka, kaluluwa, gumising ka at magsaya!
2 O magsigising na nga kayo, mga lira at alpa;
tumugtog na at hintayin ang liwayway ng umaga.
3 Sa gitna ng mga bansa kita'y pasasalamatan,
Yahweh, ika'y pupurihin sa gitna ng mga hirang.
4 Pag-ibig mong walang maliw ay abot sa kalangitan,
nadarama sa itaas ang lubos mong katapatan.
5 Sa ibabaw ng mga langit, ikaw ay itatanghal,
at dito naman sa daigdig ang iyong kaluwalhatian.
6 Sa taglay mong kalakasan kami sana ay iligtas,
upang kaming iyong lingkod ay hindi na mapahamak;
dinggin mo ang dalangin ko kapag ako'y tumatawag.
7 Sinabi nga nitong Diyos mula sa tronong luklukan,
“Hahatiin ko ang Shekem, bilang tanda ng tagumpay,
paghahati-hatiin ko ang Sucot na kapatagan, matapos na gawin ito'y ibibigay sa hinirang.
8 Ang Gilead at Manases, dal'wang dakong ito'y akin,
magsisilbing helmet ko itong lugar ng Efraim;
samantalang itong Juda ay setrong dadakilain.
9 Ang Moab ay isang lugar na gagawin kong hugasan,
samantalang itong Edom ay lupa kong tatapakan;
doon naman sa Filistia, tagumpay ko'y isisigaw.”
10 Sino kaya ang sasama sa lakad ko, Panginoon? Sa lunsod na mayroong kuta, sino'ng maghahatid ngayon?
Sino kaya'ng magdadala sa akin sa lupang Edom?
11 Dahil kami'y itinakwil, hindi mo na pinapansin.
Kung ikaw ay di kasama, paano ang hukbo namin?
12 O Diyos, kami'y tulungan mo sa paglaban sa kaaway,
pagkat ang tulong ng tao ay walang kabuluhan.
13 Kung ang Diyos ang kasama, kasama sa panig namin,
matatamo ang tagumpay, ang kaaway tatalunin.

1 My heart, O God, is steadfast;(C)
I will sing(D) and make music with all my soul.
2 Awake, harp and lyre!(E)
I will awaken the dawn.
3 I will praise you, Lord, among the nations;
I will sing of you among the peoples.

and he will trample down(V) our enemies.
