# Psalms 60 [[Psalms 59|←]] • [[Psalms 61|→]] --- To the chief Musician upon Shushan-eduth, Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand. ### 1 O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself again. to us ### 2 Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh. ### 3 Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment. ### 4 Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah. ### 5 That thy beloved may be delivered; save thy right hand, and hear me. ### 6 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth. ### 7 Gilead mine, and Manasseh mine; Ephraim also the strength of mine head; Judah my lawgiver; ### 8 Moab my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me. ### 9 Who will bring me the strong city? who will lead me into Edom? ### 10 not thou, O God, hadst cast us off? and O God, didst not go out with our armies? ### 11 Give us help from trouble: for vain the help of man. ### 12 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he shall tread down our enemies.
