Psalms 60

David prays to Jehovah that former trials may not return; prays for deliverance. To the chief musician. On the Lily of Testimony. A secret treasure of David, to teach; when he struggled with Aram-naharaim, and with Aram-zobah; when Joab returned, and struck twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt.

1To the chief musician. On the Lily of Testimony. A secret treasure of David, to teach; when he struggled with Aram-naharaim, and with Aram-zobah; when Joab returned, and struck twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt. O God! You have cast us off; You have broken us; You were angry; take us back.
2You made the earth tremble; You tore it; heal its breaks, for it is quaking.
3You have made Your people see hardship; You made us drink the wine of trembling.
4You have given a banner to those who fear You, to be lifted up because of the truth. Selah.
5Save with Your right hand and answer me, that Your beloved may be delivered.
6God has spoken in His holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.
7Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim is the strength of My head; Judah is My lawgiver;
8Moab is My washpot; over Edom I will cast out My shoe; Philistia, shout in triumph over me.
9Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom?
10Have not You, O God, cast us aside? And will You not go forth with our armies, O God?
11Give us help from the oppressor, for vain is the deliverance of man.
12Through God we shall do mighty things; for He shall tread on our adversaries.
