60:1  For the director. According to “The Lily of. . . .” A miktam of David (for teaching),
60:2  when he fought against Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah; and when Joab, coming back, slew twelve thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
60:3  O God, you have turned away from us and left us defenseless. Although your anger was aroused, now come to our aid.
60:4  You shook the earth and split it apart; repair its cracks, for it continues to shake.
60:5  You have inflicted hardships on your people; you have given us wine that made us stagger.
60:6  But for those who fear you, you have raised up a banner to unfurl against the bow. Selah
60:7  With your right hand come to our aid and answer us so that those you love may be delivered.
60:8  God has promised from his sanctuary, “In triumph I will apportion Shechem and measure out the Valley of Succoth.
60:9  Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah is my scepter.
60:10  Moab is my washbasin; upon Edom I will plant my sandal; over Philistia I will shout in triumph.”
60:11  Who will lead me into the fortified city? Who will guide me into Edom?
60:12  Is it not you, O God, who have rejected us and no longer go forth with our armies?
