Chapter Text
60:1 For the choir director. According to Shushan Eduth. A Mikhtam of David. For teaching. When he struggled with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and smote twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt. O God, You have rejected us. You have broken us; You have been angry; Oh, restore us.
60:2 You have made the land quake, You have split it open; Heal its breaches, for it shakes.
60:3 You have caused Your people to see hardship; You have given us wine to drink that causes reeling.
60:4 You have given a banner to those who fear You, In order to flee to it from the bow. Selah.
60:5 That Your beloved may be rescued, Save with Your right hand, and answer us!
60:6 God has spoken in His holiness: “I will exult, I will portion out Shechem and measure out the valley of Succoth.
60:7 Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the helmet of My head; Judah is My scepter.
60:8 Moab is My washbowl; Over Edom I shall throw My shoe; Make a loud shout, O Philistia, because of Me!”
60:9 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
60:10 Have You Yourself, O God, not rejected us? And will You, O God, not go forth with our armies?
60:11 Oh give us help against the adversary, For salvation by man is worthless.
60:12 Through God we shall do valiantly, And it is He who will tread down our adversaries.
