60:1  

  • To the Chief Musician. "On the Lily of Testimony." A secret treasure of David, for teaching. When he struggled with Aram-Naharaim and with Aram of Zobah, when Joab returned and struck twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt. O God, You have rejected us; You have broken us, You were angry; restore us to Yourself again.
  • 60:2  You made the earth to tremble; You have split it open; heal the breaks of it, for it is shaking.

    60:3  You have shown Your people hard things; You have made us to drink the wine of staggering.

    60:4  You have given a banner to those who fear You that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.

    60:5  Save with Your right hand and answer me, that Your beloved may be delivered.

    60:6  God has spoken in His holiness: "I will rejoice; I will divide Shechem and measure out the valley of Succoth.

    60:7  Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; and Ephraim is the strength of My head; Judah is My scepter;

    60:8  Moab is My washpot; upon Edom I will cast My shoe; over Philistia I shout in triumph."

    60:9  Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me into Edom?

    60:10  Have not You, O God, cast us off? And was it not You, O God, Who did not go out with our armies?

    60:11  O give us help against our foe, for vain is the help of man.

    60:12  Through God we shall do great things, for it is He who shall tread down our enemies.
