Psalm 60 :: Brenton's English Septuagint (BES)

Psa 60:1(LXX 59:1) For the end, for them that shall yet be changed; for an inscription by David for instruction, (59:2) when he had burned Mesopotamia of Syria, and Syria Sobal, and Joab had returned and smitten in the valley of salt twelve thousand. (59:3) O God, thou hast rejected and destroyed us; thou hast been angry, yet hast pitied us.
Psa 60:2(LXX 59:4) Thou hast shaken the earth, and troubled it; heal its breaches, for it has been shaken.
Psa 60:3(LXX 59:5) Thou hast shewn thy people hard things: thou hast made us drink the wine of astonishment.
Psa 60:4(LXX 59:6) Thou hast given a token to them that fear thee, that they might flee from the bow. Pause.
Psa 60:5(LXX 59:7) That thy beloved ones may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.
Psa 60:6(LXX 59:8) God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, and divide Sicima, and measure out the valley of tents.
Psa 60:7(LXX 59:9) Galaad is mine, and Manasse is mine; and Ephraim is the [fn]strength of my head;
Psa 60:8(LXX 59:10) Judas is my king; Moab is the caldron of my hope; over Idumea will I stretch out my shoe; the Philistines have been subjected to me.
Psa 60:9(LXX 59:11) Who will lead me into the fortified city? who will guide me as far as Idumea?
Psa 60:10(LXX 59:12) Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our forces?
Psa 60:11(LXX 59:13) Give us help from trouble: for vain is the deliverance of man.
Psa 60:12(LXX 59:14) In God will we [fn]do valiantly; and he shall bring to nought them that harass us.
