Salmos 108

1 Mi corazón está firme, oh Dios; cantaré, cantaré alabanzas, aun con mi alma .
2 ¡Despertad, arpa y lira! ¡A la aurora despertaré!
3 Te alabaré entre los pueblos, SEÑOR; te cantaré alabanzas entre las naciones.
4 Porque grande, por encima de los cielos, es tu misericordia; y hasta el firmamento tu verdad.
5 Exaltado seas sobre los cielos, oh Dios, sobre toda la tierra sea tu gloria.
6 Para que sean librados tus amados, salva con tu diestra, y respóndeme.
7 Dios ha hablado en su santidad : Me alegraré, repartiré a Siquem y mediré el valle de Sucot.
8 Mío es Galaad, mío es Manasés, Efraín es el yelmo de mi cabeza, Judá es mi cetro .
9 Moab es la vasija en que me lavo; sobre Edom arrojaré mi zapato; sobre Filistea lanzaré gritos.
10 ¿Quién me conducirá a la ciudad fortificada? ¿Quién me guiará hasta Edom?
11 ¿No eres tú, oh Dios, el que nos ha rechazado? ¿No saldrás, oh Dios, con nuestros ejércitos?
12 Danos ayuda contra el adversario, pues vano es el auxilio del hombre.
13 En Dios haremos proezas, y El hollará a nuestros adversarios.

Salmos 108 Commentary

Chapter 108

- We may usefully select passages from different psalms, as here, ( Psalm 57 , Psalm 60 ) , to help our devotions, and enliven our gratitude. When the heart is firm in faith and love, the tongue, being employed in grateful praises, is our glory. Every gift of the Lord honours and profits the possessor, as it is employed in God's service and to his glory. Believers may pray with assured faith and hope, for all the blessings of salvation; which are secured to them by the faithful promise and covenant of God. Then let them expect from him help in every trouble, and victory in every conflict. Whatever we do, whatever we gain, God must have all the glory. Lord, visit all our souls with this salvation, with this favour which thou bearest to thy chosen people.

Chapter Summary

INTRODUCTION TO PSALM 108

\\<>\\. This psalm consists of several passages out of the fifty seventh and sixtieth psalms, with very little variation. Jarchi and Kimchi refer it to the times of the Messiah. The title in the Syriac version is, ``concerning the calling of the Gentiles,'' to which, no doubt, it has respect.
