Psalms 60

1For the end, for them that shall yet be changed; for an inscription by David for instruction,when hehad burned Mesopotamia of Syria, and Syria Sobal, and Joabhad returned and struckin the valley of salt twelve thousand. O God, you have rejected and destroyed us; you havebeen angry, yet have pitied us.
2You have shaken the earth, and troubled it; heal its breaches, for it has beenshaken.
3You have shewn your people hard things: you has made us drink the wine of astonishment.
4You have given a token to them that fear you, that they might flee from the bow.Pause.
5That your beloved ones may be delivered; save with your right hand, and hear me.
6God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, and divide Sicima, and measureout the valley of tents.
7Galaad is mine, and Manasse is mine; and Ephraim is the strength of my head;
8Judas is my king; Moab is the caldron of my hope; over Idumea will I stretch outmy shoe; the Philistines have been subjected to me.
9Who will lead me into the fortified city? who will guide me as far a Idumea?
10Wilt not you, O God, who have cast us off? and will not you, O God, go forth withour forces?
11Give us help from trouble: for vain is the deliverance of man.
12In God will we do valiantly; and he shall bring to nothing them that harass us.
