Psalms 60

1 TO THE OVERSEER. [SET] ON “LILY OF TESTIMONY.” A MIKTAM OF DAVID, TO TEACH, IN HIS STRIVING WITH ARAM-NAHARAIM AND WITH ARAM-ZOBAH, WHEN JOAB TURNS BACK AND STRIKES EDOM IN THE VALLEY OF SALT—TWELVE THOUSAND. O God, You had cast us off, You had broken us—had been angry! You turn back to us.

١ لِقَائِدِ الْمُنْشِدِينَ عَلَى السُّوسَنِّ. شَهَادَةٌ مُذَهَّبَةٌ لِدَاوُدَ لِلتَّعْلِيمِ لَمَّا حَارَبَ سُورِيِّي مَا بَيْنَ النَّهْرَيْنِ وَسُورِيِّي صُوبَةَ، فَرَجَعَ يُوآبُ وَصَرَعَ مِنَ الأَدُومِيِّينَ فِي وَادِي الْمِلْحِ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ أَلْفاً. يَا اللهُ قَدْ رَذَلْتَنَا، وَبَدَّدْتَنَا وَسَخِطْتَ عَلَيْنَا، فَرُدَّنَا إِلَيْكَ.

2 You have caused the land to tremble, You have broken it, Heal its breaches, for it has moved.

٢ زَلْزَلْتَ الأَرْضَ وَصَدَّعْتَهَا، فَاجْبُرْ كَسْرَهَا لأَنَّهَا تَهْتَزُّ.

3 You have shown Your people a hard thing, You have caused us to drink wine of trembling.

٣ جَعَلْتَ شَعْبَكَ يُعَانِي الْمَشَقَّاتِ. وَتَرَنَّحْنَا تَحْتَ وَقْعِ ضَرَبَاتِكَ كَالسُّكَارَى.

4 You have given an ensign to those fearing You, To be lifted up as an ensign Because of truth. (Selah)

٤ أَعْطَيْتَ خَائِفِيكَ رَايَةً تُرْفَعُ لأَجْلِ الْحَقِّ.

5 That Your beloved ones may be drawn out, Save [with] Your right hand, and answer us.

٥ لِكَيْ يَنْجُوَ أَحِبَّاؤُكَ. خَلِّصْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَاسْتَجِبْ لِي.

6 God has spoken in His holiness: I exult—I apportion Shechem, And I measure the Valley of Succoth,

٦ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ اللهُ فِي قَدَاسَتِهِ، لِذَلِكَ أَبْتَهِجُ وَأَقْسِمُ أَرْضَ شَكِيمَ وَأَقِيسُ وَادِي سُكُّوتَ،

7 Gilead [is] Mine, and Manasseh [is] Mine, And Ephraim [is] the strength of My head, Judah [is] My lawgiver,

٧ لِي جِلْعَادُ، وَلِي مَنَسَّى. أَفْرَايِمُ خُوذَةُ رَأْسِي، وَيَهُوذَا صَوْلَجَانِي.

8 Moab [is] My pot for washing, Over Edom I cast My shoe, Shout, concerning Me, O Philistia.

٨ مُوآبُ مِرْحَضَتِي، وَعَلَى أَدُومَ أُلْقِي حِذَائِي، وَعَلَى فَلَسْطِينَ أَهْتِفُ مُنْتَصِراً.

9 Who brings me [to] a city of bulwarks? Who has led me to Edom?

٩ مَنْ يَقُودُنِي لِمُحَارَبَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ الْمُحَصَّنَةِ؟ مَنْ يَهْدِينِي إِلَى أَدُومَ؟

10 Is it not You, O God? Have You cast us off? And do You not go forth, O God, with our hosts?

١٠ أَلَيْسَ أَنْتَ يَا اللهُ الَّذِي أَقْصَيْتَنَا وَلَمْ تَعُدْ تَخْرُجُ مَعَ جُيُوشِنَا؟

11 Give to us help from adversity, And the deliverance of man [is] vain.

١١ هَبْ لَنَا عَوْناً فِي الضِّيقِ، فَعَبَثٌ هُوَ خَلاصُ الإِنْسَانِ.

12 We do mightily in God, And He treads down our adversaries!

١٢ بِعَوْنِ اللهِ نُحَارِبُ بِبَأْسٍ، وَهُوَ الَّذِي يَدُوسُ أَعْدَاءَنَا.
