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.
1
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.
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.
