Psalm 60 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

Grieving over Defeat in Battle, and Prayer for Help.

Psa 60:1

For the music director; according to [fn]Shushan Eduth. A [fn]Mikhtam of David, to teach; [fn]when he fought with Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and killed twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt.

God, You have rejected us. You have [fn]broken us;

You have been angry; restore us!

Psa 60:2

You have made the [fn]land quake, You have split it open;

Heal its cracks, for it sways.

Psa 60:3

You have [fn]made Your people experience hardship;

You have given us [fn]wine to drink that makes us stagger.

Psa 60:4

You have given a banner to those who fear You,

That it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah

Psa 60:5

That Your beloved may be rescued,

Save us with Your right hand, and answer [fn]us!

Psa 60:6

God has spoken in His [fn]holiness:

“I will triumph, I will divide up Shechem, and measure out the Valley of Succoth.

Psa 60:7

“Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine;

Ephraim also is the [fn]helmet of My head;

Judah is My scepter.

Psa 60:8

“Moab is My washbowl;

I will throw My sandal over Edom;

Shout loud, Philistia, because of Me!”

Psa 60:9

Who will bring me into the besieged city?

Who [fn]will lead me to Edom?

Psa 60:10

Have You Yourself not rejected us, God?

And will You not go out with our armies, God?

Psa 60:11

Oh give us help against the enemy,

For rescue [fn]by man is worthless.

Psa 60:12

[fn]Through God we will do valiantly,

And it is He who will trample down our enemies.
