PSALM 60



To the choir director: according to the lily of the testimony. A Michtam of David, for instruction, when he struggled with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and struck twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt

Ps 60:1O God, You have rejected us; You have broken out upon us; / You have been angry. Restore us.

Ps 60:2You have caused the earth to quake; You have split it open. / Heal the breaks in it, for it totters.

Ps 60:3You have shown Your people hard things; / You have made us drink wine to stagger us.

Ps 60:4You have given a banner to those who fear You, / To be displayed because of the truth. Selah

Ps 60:5That Your beloved ones may be delivered, / Save with Your right hand, and answer us.

Ps 60:6God has spoken in His holiness: I will exult; / I will divide Shechem / And measure out the Valley of Succoth.

Ps 60:7Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine, / And Ephraim is the helmet for My head; / Judah is My scepter.

Ps 60:8Moab is My washbowl; / Upon Edom I will cast My sandal; / Philistia, shout aloud because of Me.

Ps 60:9Who will bring me into the besieged city? / Who will lead me to Edom?

Ps 60:10Will not You, O God, who rejected us / And who did not go forth, O God, with our armies?

Ps 60:11Give us help from the adversary, / For a salvation by man is vain.

Ps 60:12In God we will do valiantly, / And it is He who will tread down our adversaries.
