Psalm 60

To the chief Musician *upon Shushan-eduth, ||Michtam of David, †to teach; when he *strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand.

1  *O God, athou hast cast us off, thou hast †scattered us,

Thou hast been displeased; aaO turn thyself to us again.

2  Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it:

bHeal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.

3  cThou hast shewed thy people hard things:

dThou hast made us to drink the wine of eastonishment.

4  Thou hast given fa banner to them that fear thee,

That it may be displayed because of gthe truth. Selah.

5  hThat ithy beloved may be delivered;

Save with thy right hand, and khear me.

6  God hath spoken lin his holiness;

I will rejoice, I will divide mShechem,

And nmete out the valley of oSuccoth.

7  pGilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine;

qEphraim also is qqthe strength of mine head;

Judah is rmy lawgiver;

8  sMoab is my washpot;

Over tEdom uwill I cast out my shoe:

wPhilistia, ||triumph thou because of me.

9  Who will bring me into the †strong city?

Who will lead me into Edom?

10  Wilt not thou, O God, which xhadst cast us off?

xxAnd thou, O God, which didst not go out with our armies?

11  Give us help from trouble:

For vain is the †help of man.

12  Through God we shall ydo valiantly:

For he it is that shall ztread down our enemies.
