PSALM 60
Urgent Prayer for the Restored Favor of God
(cf. Ps. 108:6–13 )
To the Chief Musician. Set to “Lily of the Testimony.”[fn] A Michtam of David. For teaching. When he fought against Mesopotamia and Syria of Zobah, and Joab returned and killed twelve thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
1 O God, You have cast us off;
​​You have broken us down;
​​You have been displeased;
​​Oh, restore us again!
2 ​​You have made the earth tremble;
​​You have broken it;
​​Heal its breaches, for it is shaking.
3 ​​You have shown Your people hard things;
​​You have made us drink the wine of confusion.
​
4 ​​You have given a banner to those who 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 measure out the Valley of Succoth.
7 ​​Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine;
​​Ephraim also is the helmet for My head;
​​Judah is My lawgiver.
8 ​​Moab is My washpot;
​​Over Edom I will cast My shoe;
​​Philistia, shout in triumph because of Me.”
​
9 ​​Who will bring me to the strong city?
​​Who will lead me to Edom?
10 ​​Is it not You, O God, who cast us off?
​​And You, O God, who did not go out with our armies?
11 ​​Give us help from trouble,
​​For the help of man is useless.
12 ​​Through God we will do valiantly,
​​For it is He who shall tread down our enemies.[fn]
