My Heart Stand Gidigba
Song. Psalm wey David write.
Dem join am together from two old psalms of David: morning music wey dey wake di dawn, then we Papa old boast say Shechem, Gilead and Edom na im own. For middle na di serious line say human rescue no worth anything, and one plea for real help.
108 1My heart stand gidigba, my Papa; I go sing and I go play music with everything wey I be. 2Wake up, harp and lyre! I go wake di morning light. 3I go praise You for inside di people dem, my Papa; I go play music to You for inside di nations. 4Bicos Your Covenant love big well well, e high pass di heavens, and Your faithfulness reach di sky.
5Make dem lift You up, my Papa, above di heavens, and make Your glory dey ontop di whole earth. 6Save us with Your right hand and answer me, so dat di people wey You love go fit escape.
7Our Papa don talk inside im holiness: “With victory I go share Shechem and measure di Valley of Succoth. 8Gilead na my own, Manasseh na my own; Ephraim na my helmet, Judah na my scepter.
9Moab na my washbasin; ontop Edom I throw my sandal; ontop Philistia I shout with victory.”
10Who go carry me go di city wey get strong wall? Who go lead me go Edom? 11No be You, our Papa, wey one time reject us, and wey no dey go out again with our army dem? 12Give us help against di enemy, bicos help wey come from man no worth anything. 13With our Papa we go win di victory, and E go trample our enemy dem for ground.
