Psalm 60

PSALM 60

Through God We Shall Do Valiantly

For the choir director. According to ^†Shushan Eduth. A ^•Mikhtam of David. For teaching. ^{^}When he struggled with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and smote twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt.

¹O God, ^aYou have rejected us. You have ^1bbroken us;

You have been ^cangry; Oh, ^drestore us.

²You have made the ^1aland quake, You have split it open;

^bHeal its breaches, for it shakes.

³You have ^acaused Your people to see hardship;

You have given us ¹wine to ^bdrink that causes reeling.

⁴You have given a ^abanner to those who fear You,

¹In order to flee to it from the bow. ²Selah.

^5aThat Your ^bbeloved may be rescued,

^cSave with Your right hand, and answer ¹us!

⁶God has spoken in His ^1aholiness:

“I will exult, I will portion out ^bShechem and measure out the valley of ^cSuccoth.

⁷“^aGilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine;

^bEphraim also is the ¹helmet of My head;

Judah is My ^2cscepter.

⁸“^aMoab is My washbowl;

Over ^bEdom I shall throw My shoe;

Make a loud shout, O ^cPhilistia, because of Me!”

⁹Who will bring me into the fortified city?

Who ¹will lead me to Edom?

¹⁰Have You Yourself, O God, not ^arejected us?

And ^bwill You, O God, not go forth with our armies?

¹¹Oh give us help against the adversary,

For ^asalvation ¹by man is worthless.

¹²¹Through God we shall ^ado valiantly,

And it is He who will ^btread down our adversaries.
