Urgent Prayer for the Restored Favor of God
To the Chief Musician. #Ps. 80Set to “Lily of the Testimony.” A Michtam of David. For teaching. #2 Sam. 8:3, 13; 1 Chr. 18:3When he fought against Mesopotamia and Syria of Zobah, and Joab returned and killed twelve thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
1O God, #Ps. 44:9You have cast us off;
You have broken us down;
You have been displeased;
Oh, restore us again!
2You have made the earth tremble;
You have broken it;
#(2 Chr. 7:14); Is. 30:26Heal its breaches, for it is shaking.
3#Ps. 71:20You have shown Your people hard things;
#Is. 51:17, 22; Jer. 25:15You have made us drink the wine of confusion.
4#Ps. 20:5; Is. 5:26; 11:12; 13:2You have given a banner to those who fear You,
That it may be displayed because of the truth.
Selah
5#Ps. 108:6–13That Your beloved may be delivered,
Save with Your right hand, and hear me.
6God has #Ps. 89:35spoken in His holiness:
“I will rejoice;
I will #Josh. 1:6divide #Gen. 12:6Shechem
And measure out #Josh. 13:27the Valley of Succoth.
7Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine;
#Deut. 33:17Ephraim also is the helmet for My head;
#(Gen. 49:10)Judah is My lawgiver.
8#2 Sam. 8:2Moab is My washpot;
#2 Sam. 8:14; Ps. 108:9Over Edom I will cast My shoe;
#2 Sam. 8:1Philistia, shout in triumph because of Me.”
9Who will bring me to the strong city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
10Is it not You, O God, #Ps. 108:11who cast us off?
And You, O God, who did #Josh. 7:12not go out with our armies?
11Give us help from trouble,
#Ps. 118:8; 146:3For the help of man is useless.
12Through God #Num. 24:18we will do valiantly,
For it is He who 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.
