Psalms 60
1 [I prayed], “God, you have rejected us [Israelis]! Because you have been angry [with us], you have [enabled our enemies] to break through our ranks. [Please] enable us to be strong again!
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 [When we were defeated, it was as though] [MET] there was a big earthquake in our land that caused the ground to split open. So now, [just as only you can] cause the cracks in the land to disappear, [help our army to be strong again], because [it is as though] our country is (falling apart/being destroyed).
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 caused [us], your people, to suffer very much; [it is as though] you forced us to drink [strong] wine that caused us to stagger around [after we became drunk].
你使你的百姓遭受艱苦，使我們喝了麻醉的烈酒。
4 But you have raised a battle flag for those who revere you in order that they can gather around it and not [be killed by the enemies’] arrows.
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 Answer our [prayers] and enable us by your power [MTY] to defeat [our enemies] in order that we, the people whom you love, will be saved.”
為叫你所愛的人，獲得救恩；求你以右手協助，垂允我們。
6 [Then] God [answered my prayer and] spoke from his temple, saying, “Because I have conquered [your enemies], I will divide up [everything in] Shechem [city], and I will distribute it among my people [the land in] Succoth Valley.
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 The Gilead [region] is mine; the [people of the tribe of] Manasseh are mine; [the tribe of] Ephraim is [like] my helmet [MET]; and [the tribe of] Judah is [like] the (scepter/stick [that I hold which shows that I am the ruler]) [MET];
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 but the Moab [region] is [like] my washbasin [MET]; I throw my sandal in the Edom [area to show that it belongs to me]; I shout triumphantly because I have defeated [the people of] the Philistia [area].”
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 [Because I want to defeat the people of] Edom, (who will lead my [army triumphantly] to their [capital] city that has strong walls around it?/I want someone to lead my [army triumphantly] to their [capital] city that has strong walls around it.)” [RHQ]
誰弔領我進入堅城，誰領導我走進厄東？
10 So, God, we [desire/hope that] [RHQ] you have not truly abandoned us, and that you will go with us when our armies march out [to fight our enemies].
天主，莫非你已將我們拋棄，難道不率領我軍出擊？
11 [We need you to] help us when we fight against our enemies, because the help that humans can give us is worthless.
求你援助我們抵抗仇讎，因為人的援助盡是虛無。
12 But with you [helping us], we shall win; you will enable us to defeat our enemies.
我們倚靠天主奮勇行事，祂必要，踐踏我們的仇敵。
