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