\60:1\For teaching. When he was fighting against Aram-naharaim and
Aramzobah, when Joab came back, and put twelve thousand of the Edomites to
death, in the Valley of Salt. [3] \60:1\God, you have put us away from you,
you have sent us in all directions, you have been angry; O be turned to us
again. [4] \60:2\By the power of your hand the earth is shaking and broken;
make it strong again, for it is moved. [5] \60:3\You have made the people
see hard times; you have given us the wine of shaking for our drink. [6]
\60:4\Give a safe place to those who have fear of you, where they may go in
flight from before the bow. (Selah.) [7] \60:5\So that your loved ones may
be made safe, let your right hand be my salvation, and give me an answer.
[8] \60:6\God has said in his holy place, I will be glad: I will make a
division of Shechem, and the valley of Succoth will be measured out. [9]
\60:7\Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; and Ephraim is the strength of
my head; Judah is my law-giver; [10] \60:8\Moab is my washpot; over Edom
will I put out my shoe; over Philistia will a glad cry be sounded. [11]
\60:9\Who will take me into the strong town? who will be my guide into
Edom? [12] \60:10\Have not you put us away, O God? and you have not gone
out with our armies. [13] \60:11\Give us help in our trouble; for there is
no help in man. [14] \60:12\Through God we will do great things, for
through him our haters will be crushed under our feet.
