Ps 108:6–13
For the Music Director. A Miktam of David to teach. To the melody of “Lily of the Testimony,” when he struggled with Aram Naharaim and with Aram Zobah and when Joab returned from striking down twelve thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
1O God, You have rejected us, You have scattered us;
You have been displeased; take us back.
2#Ps 63:1; 84:2 You have made the earth tremble; You have split it open;
heal its breaches, for it shook.
3#Ps 79:10; 80:5 You have shown Your people hard times;
You have made us drink wine, causing us to stagger.
4#Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8 You have given a banner to those who fear You,
that they may flee to it from the bow.#Or for the truth. Selah
5#Ps 42:11; 43:5 That Your beloved ones may be delivered,
save with Your right hand and answerus.
6#2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8–9 God has spoken in His holiness:
“I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem,
and measure out the Valley of Sukkoth.
7#Ps 88:7; Jnh 2:3 Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine;
Ephraim also is My helmet;
Judah is My scepter;
8#Job 35:10; Ps 63:6 Moab is My wash basin;
over Edom I will cast My shoe;
shout the alarm, O Philistia, because of Me.”
9#Ps 38:6; 18:2 Who will bring me into the fortified city?
Who will lead me into Edom?
10#Ps 42:3; Joel 2:17 You, O God, have You not cast us off?
And You, O God, did not go out with our armies.
11#Ps 42:5; 43:5 Give us help from trouble,
for the help of man is worthless.
12Through God we will do valiantly,
for He will 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.
