Psalms 108:7-13 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

7. God in his holiness hath said,Herein I will take pleasure;Shechem I will divide, and forthwill Succoth's valley measure.

8. Gilead I claim as mine by right;Manasseh mine shall be;Ephraim is of my head the strength;Judah gives laws for me;

9. Moab's my washing-pot; my shoeI'll over Edom throw;Over the land of PalestineI will in triumph go.

10. O who is he will bring me tothe city fortify'd?O who is he that to the landof Edom will me guide?

11. O God, thou who hadst cast us off,this thing wilt thou not do?And wilt not thou, ev'n thou, O God,forth with our armies go?

12. Do thou from trouble give us help,for helpless is man's aid.

13. Through God we shall do valiantly;our foes he shall down tread.
