60:1 God, you have cast us off; you have breached our defenses and you have become enraged. Return to us!
60:2 You made the earth quake; you broke it open. Repair its fractures, because it has shifted.
60:3 You made your people go through hard times; you had us drink wine that makes us stagger.
60:4 But you have given a banner to those who fear you, so they may display it in honor of truth. Interlude
60:5 So your loved ones may be delivered, save us by your power and answer us quickly!
60:6 Then God spoke in his holiness, "I will rejoice— I will divide Shechem; I will portion out the Succoth Valley.
60:7 Gilead belongs to me, and Manasseh is mine. Ephraim is my helmet, and Judah my scepter.
60:8 Moab is my wash basin; over Edom I will throw my shoes; over Philistia I will celebrate my triumph."
60:9 Who will lead me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
60:10 Aren't you the one, God, who has cast us off? Didn't you refuse, God, to accompany our armies?
60:11 Help us in our distress, for human help is worthless.
60:12 Through God we will fight valiantly; and it is he who will crush our enemies.
