60:1 For the choir director: according to “The Lily of Testimony.” A Miktam of David for teaching. When he fought with Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and struck Edom in Salt Valley, killing twelve thousand. God, you have rejected us; you have broken us down; you have been angry. Restore us!
60:2 You have shaken the land and split it open. Heal its fissures, for it shudders.
60:3 You have made your people suffer hardship; you have given us wine to drink that made us stagger.
60:4 You have given a signal flag to those who fear you, so that they can flee before the archers.Selah
60:5 Save with your right hand, and answer me, so that those you love may be rescued.
60:6 God has spoken in his sanctuary: “I will celebrate! I will divide up Shechem. I will apportion the Valley of Succoth.
60:7 Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is my helmet; Judah is my scepter.
60:8 Moab is my washbasin. I throw my sandal on Edom; I shout in triumph over Philistia.”
60:9 Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
60:10 God, haven’t you rejected us? God, you do not march out with our armies.
60:11 Give us aid against the foe, for human help is worthless.
60:12 With God we will perform valiantly; he will trample our foes.
