Psalm 60
Legacy Standard Bible
Through God We Shall Do Valiantly
For the choir director. According to [a]Shushan Eduth. A [b]Mikhtam of David. For teaching. [c]When he struggled with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and smote twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt.
60 O God, (A)You have rejected us. You have [d](B)broken us;
You have been (C)angry; Oh, (D)restore us.
2 You have made the [e](E)land quake, You have split it open;
(F)Heal its breaches, for it shakes.
3 You have (G)caused Your people to see hardship;
You have given us [f]wine to (H)drink that causes reeling.
4 You have given a (I)banner to those who fear You,
[g]In order to flee to it from the bow. [h]Selah.
5 (J)That Your (K)beloved may be rescued,
(L)Save with Your right hand, and answer [i]us!
6 God has spoken in His [j](M)holiness:
“I will exult, I will portion out (N)Shechem and measure out the valley of (O)Succoth.
7 (P)Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine;
(Q)Ephraim also is the [k]helmet of My head;
Judah is My [l](R)scepter.
8 (S)Moab is My washbowl;
Over (T)Edom I shall throw My shoe;
Make a loud shout, O (U)Philistia, because of Me!”
9 Who will bring me into the fortified city?
Who [m]will lead me to Edom?
10 Have You Yourself, O God, not (V)rejected us?
And (W)will You, O God, not go forth with our armies?
11 Oh give us help against the adversary,
For (X)salvation [n]by man is worthless.
12 [o]Through God we shall (Y)do valiantly,
And it is He who will (Z)tread down our adversaries.
