< Psalms 60 >
1 For the music director. According to “Lily of the Testimony.” A psalm (miktam) of David, useful for teaching, about the time he fought against Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and then Joab returned and killed 12,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. You, God, have rejected us! You have broken us; you have been angry with us; but now you have to welcome us back!
Untuk pemimpin kor. Menurut lagu: Bunga bakung kesaksian. Mazmur pengajaran dari Daud, ketika ia memerangi orang Aram-Mesopotamia dan orang Aram-Zoba, dan ketika Yoab pulang dan mengalahkan 12.000 orang Edom di Lembah Asin. Engkau menolak kami, ya Allah, dan membiarkan kami dikalahkan. Engkau marah kepada kami; sekarang pulihkanlah kami.
2 You have sent earthquakes on our land and split it apart. Now heal the cracks, for the land is still having tremors.
Engkau menggoncangkan bumi sehingga retak; perbaikilah yang pecah-pecah, sebab bumi goyah.
3 You have been very hard on your people; you gave us wine that made us stagger around.
Kaubiarkan umat-Mu mengalami penderitaan berat; kami terhuyung-huyung seperti orang mabuk.
4 But you have given those who respect you the banner of truth to unfurl and rally around. (Selah)
Kauberi peringatan kepada orang-orang takwa, supaya mereka luput dari hukuman.
5 Rescue those you love! Answer us, and save us by your power!
Selamatkanlah kami dengan kuasa-Mu, jawablah doa kami, supaya orang-orang yang Kaukasihi diselamatkan.
6 God has spoken from his Temple: “Triumphantly I divide up Shechem, and portion out the Valley of Succoth.
Dari kediaman-Nya yang suci Allah berkata, "Aku mau bersorak dan membagi-bagikan tanah Sikhem; Lembah Sukot akan Kuundi.
7 Both Gilead and Manasseh belong to me. Ephraim is my helmet, and Judah is my scepter.
Gilead dan Manasye adalah milik-Ku, Efraim topi baja-Ku, dan Yehuda tongkat kerajaan-Ku.
8 I will treat Moab as my washbasin; I will place my sandal on Edom; I will shout in triumph over Philistia.”
Tetapi Moab adalah tempat pembasuhan kaki-Ku; Aku bersorak kemenangan atas Filistea. Kepada Edom Kulemparkan kasut-Ku sebagai tanda bahwa ia milik-Ku."
9 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me into Edom?
Siapa akan membawa aku ke Edom? Siapa menuntun aku ke kota berkubu itu?
10 Have you rejected us, God? Won't you lead our armies?
Ya Allah, tidakkah Engkau ikut bersama kami? Tidakkah Engkau maju bersama tentara kami?
11 Please give us help against our enemies, for human help is worthless.
Tolonglah kami terhadap musuh, sebab bantuan manusia tidak berguna.
12 Our strength is in God, and he will crush our enemies.
Bersama Allah, kita akan gagah perkasa, Dialah yang mengalahkan musuh kita.
