詩篇 60

1For the leader; on shushan eduth. Meaning of Heb. uncertain. A michtam of David (to be taught),

2when he fought with Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and defeated Edom—[an army] of twelve thousand men—in the Valley of Salt.

3O God, You have rejected us,You have made a breach in us;You have been angry;restore us!

4You have made the land quake;You have torn it open.Mend its fissures,for it is collapsing.

5You have made Your people suffer hardship;You have given us wine that makes us reel.

6Give those who fear You because of Your trutha banner for rallying. Selah.

7That those whom You love might be rescued,deliver with Your right hand and answer me.

8God promised in the sanctuary that I would exultingly divide up Shechem,and measure the Valley of Sukkoth;

9Gilead and Manasseh would be mine,Ephraim my chief stronghold,Judah my scepter;

10Moab would be my washbasin;on Edom I would cast my shoe;acclaim me, O Philistia!

11Would that I were brought to the bastion!Would that I were led to Edom!

12But You have rejected us, O God;God, You do not march with our armies.

13Grant us Your aid against the foe,for human help is worthless.

14We shall triumph with God,who will trample our foes.
