Psa 60 | AKJV | STEP | ¶ To the chief Musician upon Shushan-Eduth Michtam of David, to teach. When he strove with Aram Zobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt, twelve thousand. O God, you have cast us off, you have scattered us, you have been displeased; O turn yourself to us again.

Psalms 60

1 David complaining to God of former judgement, 4 now upon golden better hope prays for deliverance. 6 Comforting himself in Psalm. God’s promises, he craves that help whereon he trusts.

¶ To the chief Musician upon Shushan-Eduth Michtam of David, to teach. When he strove with Aram Zobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt, twelve thousand.

1 O God, you have cast us off, you have scattered us, you have been displeased; O turn yourself to us again.
2 You have made the earth to tremble; you have broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shakes.
3 You have showed your people hard things: you have made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
4 You have given a banner to them that fear you, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
5 That your beloved may be delivered; save with your right hand, and hear me.
6 God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of my head; Judah is my lawgiver;
8 Moab is my wash pot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph you because of me.
9 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
10 Will not you, O God, which had cast us off? and you, O God, which did not go out with our armies?
11 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
12 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
