Psalm 60 :: American Standard Version (ASV)

Lament over Defeat in Battle, and Prayer for Help.

(cf. Psa 108:6–13 )

For the Chief Musician; set to Shushan Eduth. Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the Valley of Salt twelve thousand.

O God thou hast cast us off, thou hast broken us down;

Thou hast been angry; oh restore us again.

Psa 60:2

Thou hast made the land to tremble; thou hast rent it:

Heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.

Psa 60:3

Thou hast showed thy people hard things:

Thou hast made us to drink the wine of staggering.

Psa 60:4

Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee,

That it may be displayed because of the truth.

[Selah

Psa 60:5

That thy beloved may be delivered,

Save with thy right hand, and answer us.

Psa 60:6

God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult;

I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

Psa 60:7

Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine;

Ephraim also is the defence of my head;

Judah is my sceptre.

Psa 60:8

Moab is my washpot;

Upon Edom will I cast my shoe:

Philistia, shout thou because of me.

Psa 60:9

Who will bring me into the strong city?

Who hath led me unto Edom?

Psa 60:10

Hast not thou, O God, cast us off?

And thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts.

Psa 60:11

Give us help against the adversary;

For vain is the help of man.

Psa 60:12

Through God we shall do valiantly;

For he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
