Psalms 108:1-6

1 A Song, a Psalm of David. Prepared is my heart, O God, I sing, yea, I sing praise, also my honour.

2 Awake, psaltery and harp, I awake the dawn.

3 I thank Thee among peoples, O Jehovah, And I praise Thee among the nations.

4 For great above the heavens [is] Thy kindness, And unto the clouds Thy truth.

5 Be Thou exalted above the heavens, O God, And above all the earth Thy honour.

6 That Thy beloved ones may be delivered, Save [with] Thy right hand, and answer us.

Psalms 108:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

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.
