Psalms 60
1 For the end, for them that shall yet be changed; for an inscription by David for instruction, when he [had] burnt Mesopotamia of Syria, and Syria Sobal, and Joab [had] returned and struck [in] the valley of salt twelve thousand. O God, you have rejected and destroyed us; you have been angry, yet have pitied us.
Al maestro de coro. Por el tono de “El lirio del testimonio”. Miktam de David, para hacerlo aprender. Cuando hizo guerra contra Aram de Naharaim y Aram de Sobá, y Joab, ya de vuelta, batió a Edom en el valle de las Salinas (matándole) doce mil hombres. Oh Dios, nos has desechado, quebrantaste nuestros ejércitos; estabas airado, ¡vuelve a nosotros!
2 You have shaken the earth, and troubled it; heal its breaches, for it has been shaken.
Has sacudido la tierra, la has hendido; sana sus fracturas porque tambalea.
3 You have shown your people hard things: you has made us drink the wine of astonishment.
Cosas duras le hiciste experimentar a tu pueblo; nos diste de beber vino de vértigo.
4 You have given a token to them that fear you, that they might flee from the bow. (Pause)
Pusiste, empero, una señal a los que te temen de modo que huyeran del arco.
5 That your beloved ones may be delivered; save with your right hand, and hear me.
Mas ahora; para que sean libertados los que Tu amas, socorre con tu diestra, y escúchanos.
6 God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, and divide Sicima, and measure out the valley of tents.
Dijo Dios en su santidad: “Triunfaré; repartiré a Siquem, y mediré el valle de Sucot.
7 Galaad is mine, and Manasse is mine; and Ephraim is the strength of my head;
Mío es Galaad, y mía la tierra de Manasés; Efraím es el yelmo de mi cabeza; y Judá mi cetro;
8 Judas is my king; Moab is the cauldron of my hope; over Idumea will I stretch out my shoe; the Philistines have been subjected to me.
Moab, la vasija de mi lavatorio; sobre Edom echaré mi calzado, y Filistea será mi súbdito.”
9 Who will lead me into the fortified city? who will guide me as far a Idumea?
¿Quién me conducirá a la ciudad fortificada? ¿Quién me llevará hasta Edom?
10 Will not you, O God, who have cast us off? and will not you, O God, go forth with our forces?
¿No serás Tú, oh Dios, que nos has rechazado y que ya no sales con nuestros ejércitos?
11 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the deliverance of man.
Ven en nuestro auxilio contra el adversario, porque vano es el auxilio de los hombres.
12 In God will we do valiantly; and he shall bring to nothing them that harass us.
Con Dios haremos proezas; Él hollará a nuestros enemigos.
