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.

達味金詩，交與樂官。 約阿布歸來，在鹽谷殺了一萬二千人。 天主，你拋棄了我們，粉碎了我們！你曾發怒，今求你復興我們。

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

你曾使大地震動，使地裂土崩，求你彌補裂縫，因它搖搖不定。

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

你使你的百姓遭受艱苦，使我們喝了麻醉的烈酒。

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

然後你為敬愛你的人，豎起旗幟，為使他們閃避仇敵的弓矢；

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

為叫你所愛的人，獲得救恩；求你以右手協助，垂允我們。

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

天主在自己的聖所說：「我要凱旋，將舍根分疆，將穌苛特的平原測量。

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

基肋阿得地屬於我，默納協地也屬於我；我的頭盔就是厄弗辣因，猶大成為我手中的權棍；

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

摩阿布是我的沐浴池，我向厄東投我的鞋隻，我還要戰勝培肋舍特。

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

誰弔領我進入堅城，誰領導我走進厄東？

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

天主，莫非你已將我們拋棄，難道不率領我軍出擊？

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

求你援助我們抵抗仇讎，因為人的援助盡是虛無。

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

我們倚靠天主奮勇行事，祂必要，踐踏我們的仇敵。
