| 1 | (Psalm 60 For the Chief Musician; [set to] Shushan Eduth. Michtam of David, to teach; and 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. |
| 2 | Thou hast made the land to tremble; thou hast rent it: Heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh. |
| 3 | Thou hast showed thy people hard things: Thou hast made us to drink the wine of staggering. |
| 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 with thy right hand, and answer us. |
| 6 | God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult; I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth. |
| 7 | Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of my head; Judah is my sceptre. |
| 8 | Moab is my washpot; Upon Edom will I cast my shoe: Philistia, shout thou because of me. |
| 9 | Who will bring me into the strong city? Who hath led me unto Edom? |
| 10 | Hast not thou, O God, cast us off? And thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts. |
| 11 | Give us help against the adversary; For vain is the help of man. |
| 12 | Through God we shall do valiantly; For he it is that will tread down our adversaries. |
