תהילים סPsalms 60

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

when 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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