Psalms 108

Ps 57:7-11; 60:5-12

A Song. A Psalm of David.

1 O God, my heart is determined;

I will sing and give praise with my whole heart.

2 Ps 63:1; 84:2 Awake, O lyre and harp!

I will awake at dawn!

3 Ps 79:10; 80:5 I will praise you, O Lord, among the peoples,

and I will sing praises unto You among the nations.

4 Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8 For Your mercy is great above the heavens;

Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

5 Ps 42:11; 43:5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens,

may Your glory be above all the earth.

6 (2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8-9 ) That Your beloved ones may be delivered,

provide salvation with Your right hand and answer me.

7 (Ps 88:7; Jnh 2:3) God has spoken in His sanctuary:

"I will triumph and will divide up Shechem

and portion out the Valley of Sukkoth.

8 (Job 35:10; Ps 63:6) Gilead is Mine; Manasseh is Mine;

Ephraim is My helmet;

Judah is My royal scepter;

9 (Ps 38:6; 18:2) Moab is My washbasin;

on Edom I throw My shoe;

over Philistia I shout in triumph."

10 (Ps 42:3; Joel 2:17) Who will bring me into the fortified city?

Who will lead me into Edom?

11 (Ps 42:5; 43:5) Have You not rejected us, O God?

You surely do not go out, O God, with our armies.

12 Grant us help against the foe,

for the help of man is worthless.

13 Through God we shall be valiant,

for He shall tread down our enemies.



Psalm 108

[1] O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my

glory.

[2] Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

[3] I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises

unto thee among the nations.

[4] For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto

the clouds.

[5] Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the

earth;

[6] That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer

me.

[7] God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem,

and mete out the valley of Succoth.

[8] Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine

head; Judah is my lawgiver;

[9] Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia

will I triumph.

[10] Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

[11] Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God,

go forth with our hosts?

[12] Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

[13] Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down

our enemies.



Psalms 109



For the Music Director. A Psalm of David.



1 Do not remain silent,

O God of my praise!

2 (Ps 63:1; 84:2) For the mouth of the wicked and deceitful

are opened against me;

they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.

3 (Ps 79:10; 80:5) They encircled me with words of hatred

and fought against me without cause.

4 (Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8) In return for my love they are my adversaries,

but I give myself to prayer.

5 (Ps 42:11; 43:5) They have rewarded me evil for good

and hatred for my love.

6 (2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8-9) Set a wicked man against him,

and let an accuser stand at his right hand.

7 (Ps 88:7; Jnh 2:3 ) When he shall be judged, let him be condemned,

and let his prayer be reckoned as sin.

8 (Job 35:10; Ps 63:6) Let his days be few,

and let another take his office.

9 (Ps 38:6; 18:2) Let his children be fatherless

and his wife a widow.

10 (Ps 42:3; Joel 2:17) Let his children be wandering beggars;

let them seek their bread far from their desolate places.

11 (Ps 42:5; 43:5) Let the creditor seize all that he has;

let the strangers plunder the fruit of his labor.

12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him,

neither let there be any to pity his fatherless children.

13 Let his posterity be cut off,

and in the generation following let his name be blotted out.

14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the Lord,

and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

15 Let them be before the Lord continually,

that the Lord may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

16 For he did not remember to show kindness,

but pursued the poor and needy and broken-hearted

to their death.

17 As he loved cursing,

so let it come over him;

as he did not delight in blessing,

so let it be far from him.

18 As he clothed himself with cursing like a garment,

so let it soak into him like water,

and like oil into his bones.

19 Let it be unto him as the garment that covers him,

and a belt that he continually wears.

20 Let this be the reward of my adversaries from the Lord,

and of those who speak evil against my soul.

21 But You, O God my Lord,

work on my behalf for your name’s sake;

because your mercy is good, deliver me.

22 For I am poor and needy,

and my heart is wounded within me.

23 I am gone like a shadow in the evening;

I am tossed as the locust.

24 My knees are weak through fasting,

and my body is thin with no fat.

25 I am a reproach to my accusers;

when they look upon me, they shake their heads.

26 Help me, O Lord my God!

Save me according to Your mercy,

27 that they may know that this is by Your hand,

that You, O Lord, have done it.

28 Let them curse, but You will bless;

when they arise, let them be ashamed,

but let Your servant rejoice.

29 Let my adversaries be clothed with shame,

and let them cover themselves with their own disgrace like a cloak.

30 I will greatly praise the Lord with my mouth;

indeed, I will praise Him among the multitude.

31 For He stands at the right hand of the poor,

to save him from those who condemn his soul to death.



Psalm 109

[1] Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;

[2] For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened

against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.

[3] They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me

without a cause.

[4] For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.

[5] And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

[6] Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.

[7] When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become

sin.

[8] Let his days be few; and let another take his office.

[9] Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

[10] Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their

bread also out of their desolate places.

[11] Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil

his labour.

[12] Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to

favour his fatherless children.

[13] Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their

name be blotted out.

[14] Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let

not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

[15] Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory

of them from the earth.

[16] Because that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor

and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.

[17] As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in

blessing, so let it be far from him.

[18] As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it

come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.

[19] Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a girdle

wherewith he is girded continually.

[20] Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them

that speak evil against my soul.

[21] But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy

mercy is good, deliver thou me.

[22] For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.

[23] I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as

the locust.

[24] My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.

[25] I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me they

shaked their heads.

[26] Help me, O LORD my God: O save me according to thy mercy:

[27] That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, LORD, hast done it.

[28] Let them curse, but bless thou: when they arise, let them be ashamed;

but let thy servant rejoice.

[29] Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover

themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.

[30] I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise him

among the multitude.

[31] For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him from

those that condemn his soul.



Psalms 110

A Psalm of David.

1 The Lord said to my lord,

"Sit at My right hand,

until I make your enemies

your footstool."

2 (Ps 63:1; 84:2) The Lord shall send your mighty scepter out of Zion;

rule in the midst of your enemies.

3 (Ps 79:10; 80:5) Your people will follow you

in the day of your battle;

on the holy mountains

at dawn of the morning,

the dew of your youth belongs to you.

4 (Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8) The Lord has sworn

and will not change,

"You are a priest forever

after the order of Melchizedek."

5 (Ps 42:11; 43:5) The Lord is at your right hand;

He shall strike down kings in the day of His wrath.

6 (2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8-9) He shall judge among the nations;

He shall fill them with dead bodies;

He shall scatter heads all over the land.

7 (Ps 88:7; Jnh 2:3) He shall drink of the brook in the path;

then He shall lift up the head.



Psalm 110

[1] The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make

thine enemies thy footstool.

[2] The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in

the midst of thine enemies.

[3] Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of

holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.

[4] The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever

after the order of Melchizedek.

[5] The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his

wrath.

[6] He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead

bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.

[7] He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the

head.
