Assurance of God’s Victory over Enemies
(Ps. 57:7–11; 60:5–12)
A Song. A Psalm of David.
1O God, my heart is steadfast;
I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.
2Awake, lute and harp!
I will awaken the dawn.
3I will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples,
And I will sing praises to You among the nations.
And Your truth reaches to the clouds.
5Be exalted, O God, above the heavens,
And Your glory above all the earth;
6That Your beloved may be delivered,
Save with Your right hand, and 108:6 Lit. answerhear me.
7God has spoken in His holiness:
“I will rejoice;
I will divide Shechem
And measure out the Valley of Succoth.
Ephraim also is the 108:8 Lit. protectionhelmet for My head;
Judah is My lawgiver.
9Moab is My washpot;
Over Edom I will cast My shoe;
Over Philistia I will triumph.”
10Who will bring me into the strong city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
And You, O God, who did not go out with our armies?
12Give us help from trouble,
For the help of man is useless.
13Through God we will do valiantly,
For it is He who shall tread down our enemies.
