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!
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 [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).
你使地震動，而且崩裂； 求你將裂口醫好，因為地搖動。
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].
你叫你的民遇見艱難； 你叫我們喝那使人東倒西歪的酒。
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.
你把旌旗賜給敬畏你的人， 可以為真理揚起來。 (細拉)
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.”
求你應允我們，用右手拯救我們， 好叫你所親愛的人得救。
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.
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 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 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 [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]
誰能領我進堅固城？ 誰能引我到以東地？
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].
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 [We need you to] help us when we fight against our enemies, because the help that humans can give us is worthless.
求你幫助我們攻擊敵人， 因為人的幫助是枉然的。
12 But with you [helping us], we shall win; you will enable us to defeat 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。
