Victory Through God

For the music director; according to the shushan-eduth style; a prayer of David written to instruct others. It was written when he fought against Aram Naharaim and Aram-Zobah. That was when Joab turned back and struck down 12,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt.

1 O God, you have rejected us. You suddenly turned on us in your anger. Please restore us!

2 You made the earth quake; you split it open. Repair its breaches, for it is ready to fall.

3 You have made your people experience hard times; you have made us drink intoxicating wine.

4 You have given your loyal followers a rallying flag, so that they might seek safety from the bow. (Selah)

5 Deliver by your power and answer me, so that the ones you love may be safe.

6 God has spoken in his sanctuary: “I will triumph! I will parcel out Shechem; the Valley of Succoth I will measure off.

7 Gilead belongs to me, as does Manasseh! Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my royal scepter.

8 Moab is my washbasin. I will make Edom serve me. I will shout in triumph over Philistia.”

9 Who will lead me into the fortified city? Who will bring me to Edom?

10 Have you not rejected us, O God? O God, you do not go into battle with our armies.

11 Give us help against the enemy, for any help men might offer is futile.

12 By God’s power we will conquer; he will trample down our enemies. — Psalm 60 | New English Translation (NET Bible) NET Bible® copyright ©1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press, L.L.C.

To the chief Musician upon Shushan-eduth, Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aram-naharaim, and with Aram-zobah, when Joab returned and smote of Edom, in the valley of Salt, twelve thousand.

1 O Lord, thou hast rejected us, and scatter'd us abroad; Thou justly hast displeased been; return to us,

2 The earth to tremble thou hast made; therein didst breaches make: Do thou thereof the breaches heal, because the land doth shake.

3 Unto thy people thou hard things hast shew'd, and on them sent; And thou hast caused us to drink wine of astonishment.

4 And yet a banner thou hast giv'n to them who thee do fear; That it by them, because of truth, displayed may appear.

5 That thy beloved people may deliver'd be from thrall, Save with the pow'r of thy right hand, and hear me when I call.

6 God in his holiness hath spoke; herein I will take pleasure: Shechem I will divide, and forth will Succoth's valley measure.

7 Gilead I claim as mine by right; Manasseh mine shall be; Ephraim is of mine head the strength; Judah gives laws for me;

8 Moab's my washing-pot; my shoe I'll over Edom throw; And over Palestina's land I will in triumph go.

9 O who is he will bring me to the city fortify'd? O who is he that to the land of Edom will me guide?

10 O God, which hadest us cast off, this thing wilt thou not do? Ev'n thou, O God, which didest not forth with our armies go?

11 Help us from trouble; for the help is vain which man supplies.

12 Through God we'll do great acts; he shall tread down our enemies. — Psalm 60 | Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650) The Metrical Psalter, © British and Foreign Bible Society 2015. All rights reserved.

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭60‬:‭9‬-‭12‬

Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will bring me victory over Edom? Have You rejected us, O God? Will You no longer march with our armies? Oh, please help us against our enemies, for all human help is useless. With God’s help we will do mighty things, for He will trample down our foes.
