詩篇 60

1 大衛與兩河間的亞蘭並瑣巴的亞蘭爭戰的時候，約押轉回，在鹽谷攻擊以東，殺了一萬二千人。那時，大衛作這金詩，叫人學習，交與伶長。調用為證的百合花。 上帝啊，你丟棄了我們，使我們破敗； 你向我們發怒，求你使我們復興！

“To the chief musician upon Shushan'eduth, a Michtham of David, to teach, When he fought with Aram-naharayim, and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the Salt Valley twelve thousand [men].” O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast made a breach in us, thou hast been displeased: restore now unto us [thy favor].

2 你使地震動，而且崩裂； 求你將裂口醫好，因為地搖動。

Thou hast caused the earth to quake; thou hast split it: heal her breaches; for she is moved.

3 你叫你的民遇見艱難； 你叫我們喝那使人東倒西歪的酒。

Thou hast caused thy people to see hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of confusion.

4 你把旌旗賜給敬畏你的人， 可以為真理揚起來。 (細拉)

Thou hast given to those that fear thee a banner, to elevate themselves, because of the truth. (Selah)

5 求你應允我們，用右手拯救我們， 好叫你所親愛的人得救。

In order that thy beloved may be delivered: help with thy right hand, and answer me.

6 上帝已經指着他的聖潔說：我要歡樂； 我要分開示劍，丈量疏割谷。

God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and the valley of Succoth will I measure out.

7 基列是我的，瑪拿西也是我的。 以法蓮是護衛我頭的； 猶大是我的杖。

Mine is Gil'ad, and mine is Menasseh; Ephraim also is the strong-hold of my head; of Judah are my chiefs;

8 摩押是我的沐浴盆； 我要向以東拋鞋。 非利士啊，你還能因我歡呼嗎？

Moab is my washpot; upon Edom will I cast my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou but over me.

9 誰能領我進堅固城？ 誰能引我到以東地？

Who will bring me into the fortified city? who will lead me as far as Edom?

10 上帝啊，你不是丟棄了我們嗎？ 上帝啊，你不和我們的軍兵同去嗎？

Behold, it is thou, O God, who hast cast us off; and thou, O God, goest not forth with our armies.

11 求你幫助我們攻擊敵人， 因為人的幫助是枉然的。

Give us help against the assailant; for vain is the help of man.

12 我們倚靠上帝才得施展大能， 因為踐踏我們敵人的就是他。

Through God shall we do valiantly: and he it is that will tread down our assailants.
