Psalm 60
To the Overcomer 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.
1¶ O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us; thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.
2Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it; heal its breaches, for it shakes.
3Thou hast showed thy people hard things; thou hast made us to drink the wine of shaking.
4Thou hast given a banner to those that fear thee that they raise up for the truth. Selah.
5That thy beloved may be delivered, save with thy right hand and hear me.
6¶ God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem and mete out the valley of Succoth.
7Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of my head; Judah is my lawgiver;
8Moab is my washpot; over Edom I will cast out my shoe; Philistia, triumph thou because of me.
9Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom?
10Surely thou, O God, who had cast us off; and thou, O God, who did not go out with our armies.
11Give us help from trouble, for vain is the salvation of man.
12Through God we shall do valiantly, for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.

Psalm 60
For the choir director; according to shushan eduth; #60:0 Unknown musical term. a miktam by David; for teaching. When David fought Aram Naharaim and Aram Zobah, and ⌞when⌟ Joab came back and killed 12,000 men from Edom in the Dead Sea region.
1O God, you have rejected us.
You have broken down our defenses.
You have been angry.
Restore us!
2You made the land quake.
You split it wide open.
Heal the cracks in it
because it is falling apart.
3You have made your people experience hardships.
You have given us wine that makes us stagger.
4Yet, you have raised a flag for those who fear you
so that they can rally to it
when attacked by bows ⌞and arrows⌟. Selah
5Save ⌞us⌟ with your powerful hand, and answer us
so that those who are dear to you may be rescued.#60:5 Verses 5–12 are virtually identical in wording to Psalm 108:6–13.
6God has promised the following through his holiness:
“I will triumph!
I will divide Shechem.
I will measure the valley of Succoth.
7Gilead is mine.
Manasseh is mine.
Ephraim is the helmet on my head.
Judah is my scepter.
8Moab is my washtub.
I will throw my shoe over Edom.
I will shout in triumph over Philistia.”
9Who will bring me into the fortified city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
10Isn’t it you, O God, who rejected us?
Isn’t it you, O God, who refused to accompany our armies?
11Give us help against the enemy
because human assistance is worthless.
12With God we will display great strength.
He will trample our enemies.
