Psalm 60Prayer in Difficult Times
|
|
|
|
1. God, you have rejected us;
|
|
you have broken us down;
|
|
you have been angry. Restore us!
|
|
|
|
2. You have shaken the land and split it open.
|
|
Heal its fissures, for it shudders.
|
|
|
|
3. You have made your people suffer hardship;
|
|
you have given us wine to drink
|
|
that made us stagger.
|
|
|
|
4. You have given a signal flag to those who fear you,
|
|
so that they can flee before the archers.Selah
|
|
|
|
5. Save with your right hand, and answer me,
|
|
so that those you love may be rescued.
|
|
|
|
6. God has spoken in his sanctuary:
|
|
"I will celebrate!
|
|
I will divide up Shechem.
|
|
I will apportion the Valley of Succoth.
|
|
|
|
7. Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine,
|
|
and Ephraim is my helmet;
|
|
Judah is my scepter.
|
|
|
|
8. Moab is my washbasin.
|
|
I throw my sandal on Edom;
|
|
I shout in triumph over Philistia."
|
|
|
|
9. Who will bring me to the fortified city?
|
|
Who will lead me to Edom?
|
|
|
|
10. God, haven't you rejected us?
|
|
God, you do not march out with our armies.
|
|
|
|
11. Give us aid against the foe,
|
|
for human help is worthless.
|
|
|
|
12. With God we will perform valiantly;
|
|
he will trample our foes.
