< Psalms 60 >

1 Unto the end. For those who will be changed, with the inscription of a title, of David himself, for instruction: when he set fire to Mesopotamia of Syria and Sobal, and Joab turned back and struck Idumea, in the valley of the salt pits, twelve thousand men. O God, you have rejected us, and you have ruined us. You became angry, and yet you have been merciful to us.
In finem, Pro his, qui immutabuntur, in tituli inscriptionem ipsi David in doctrinam, cum succendit Mesopotamiam Syriæ, et Sobal, et convertit Ioab, et percussit Idumæam in valle Salinarum duodecim millia. Deus repulisti nos, et destruxisti nos: iratus es, et misertus es nobis.
2 You have moved the earth, and you have disturbed it. Heal its breaches, for it has been moved.
Commovisti terram, et conturbasti eam: sana contritiones eius, quia commota est.
3 You have revealed to your people difficulties. You have made us drink the wine of remorse.
Ostendisti populo tuo dura: potasti nos vino compunctionis.
4 You have given a warning sign to those who fear you, so that they may flee from before the face of the bow, so that your beloved may be delivered.
Dedisti metuentibus te significationem: ut fugiant a facie arcus: Ut liberentur dilecti tui:
5 Save me with your right hand, and hear me.
salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me.
6 God has spoken in his holy place: I will rejoice, and I will divide Shechem, and I will measure the steep valley of the tabernacles.
Deus locutus est in sancto suo: Lætabor, et partibor Sichimam: et convallem tabernaculorum metibor.
7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine. And Ephraim is the strength of my head. Judah is my king.
Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses: et Ephraim fortitudo capitis mei. Iuda rex meus:
8 Moab is the cooking pot of my hope. Into Idumea, I will extend my shoe. To me, the foreigners have been made subject.
Moab olla spei meæ. In Idumæam extendam calceamentum meum: mihi alienigenæ subditi sunt.
9 Who will lead me into the fortified city? Who will lead me all the way to Idumea?
Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam? quis deducet me usque in Idumæam?
10 Will not you, O God, who has rejected us? And will not you, O God, go out with our armies?
Nonne tu Deus, qui repulisti nos: et non egredieris Deus in virtutibus nostris?
11 Grant us help from tribulation. For salvation from man is empty.
Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione: quia vana salus hominis.
12 In God, we will act virtuously. And those who trouble us, he will lead to nothing.
In Deo faciemus virtutem: et ipse ad nihilum deducet tribulantes nos.
