< Psalms 60 >
1 O God, you have cast us off, you have scattered us, you have been displeased; O turn yourself to us again.
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!
2 You have made the earth to tremble; you have broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shakes.
你使地震動,而且崩裂; 求你將裂口醫好,因為地搖動。
3 You have showed your people hard things: you have made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
你叫你的民遇見艱難; 你叫我們喝那使人東倒西歪的酒。
4 You have given a banner to them that fear you, that it may be displayed because of the truth. (Selah)
你把旌旗賜給敬畏你的人, 可以為真理揚起來。 (細拉)
5 That your beloved may be delivered; save with your right hand, and hear me.
求你應允我們,用右手拯救我們, 好叫你所親愛的人得救。
6 God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
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。
7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of my head; Judah is my lawgiver;
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。
8 Moab is my wash pot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph you because of me.
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?
9 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
誰能領我進堅固城? 誰能引我到以東地?
10 Will not you, O God, which had cast us off? and you, O God, which did not go out with our armies?
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?
11 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
求你幫助我們攻擊敵人, 因為人的幫助是枉然的。
12 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
我們倚靠上帝才得施展大能, 因為踐踏我們敵人的就是他。
