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