Victory with God

(2 Samuel 8:1-14; 1 Chronicles 18:1-13; Psalm 108:1-13)
1
O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.(a) (b)
2
Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.
3
Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
4
Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
5
That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.
6
God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
7
Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
8
Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me.(c)
9
Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?(d)
10
Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst cast us off? and thou, O God, which didst not go out with our armies?
11
Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.(e)
12
Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
