| 60:1 |
You have rejected us, O God, and burst forth upon us; you have been angry--now restore us! |
| 60:2 |
You have shaken the land and torn it open; mend its fractures, for it is quaking. |
| 60:3 |
You have shown your people desperate times; you have given us wine that makes us stagger. |
| 60:4 |
But for those who fear you, you have raised a banner to be unfurled against the bow. Selah |
| 60:5 |
Save us and help us with your right hand, that those you love may be delivered. |
| 60:6 |
God has spoken from his sanctuary: "In triumph I will parcel out Shechem and measure off the Valley of Succoth. |
| 60:7 |
Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my scepter. |
| 60:8 |
Moab is my washbasin, upon Edom I toss my sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph." |
| 60:9 |
Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom? |
| 60:10 |
Is it not you, O God, you who have rejected us and no longer go out with our armies? |
| 60:11 |
Give us aid against the enemy, for the help of man is worthless. |
| 60:12 |
With God we will gain the victory, and he will trample down our enemies. |
