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!
Al la ĥorestro. Por ŝuŝan-eduto. Instrua verko de David, kiam li militis kun Sirio Mezopotamia kaj kun Sirio Coba, kaj kiam Joab, revenante, batis dek du mil Edomidojn en la Valo de Salo. Ho Dio, Vi forlasis nin, Vi disbatis nin; Vi koleris; rekonsolu nin.
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).
Vi ekskuis la teron kaj fendis ĝin; Resanigu ĝiajn vundojn, ĉar ĝi ŝanceliĝas.
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].
Vi sentigis al Via popolo pezan sorton; Vi trinkigis al ni vinon senkonsciigan.
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.
Sed Vi donis standardon al tiuj, kiuj Vin timas, Por ke ili ĝin levu pro la vero. (Sela)
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.”
Por ke liberiĝu Viaj amatoj, Helpu per Via dekstra mano, kaj aŭskultu min.
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.
Dio diris en Sia sanktejo: Mi triumfos; Mi dividos Ŝeĥemon, kaj la valon Sukot Mi mezuros.
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];
Al Mi apartenas Gilead, al Mi apartenas Manase; Efraim estas la forto de Mia kapo, Jehuda estas Mia sceptro.
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].”
Moab estas Mia lavopelvo; Sur Edomon Mi ĵetos Mian ŝuon; Super Filiŝtujo Mi triumfe krios.
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]
Kiu enkondukos min en fortikigitan urbon? Kiu alkondukos min ĝis Edom?
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].
Ĉu ne Vi, ho Dio, forlasis nin? Vi ne eliras, ho Dio, kun niaj militistaroj.
11 [We need you to] help us when we fight against our enemies, because the help that humans can give us is worthless.
Donu al ni helpon kontraŭ la malamiko; Vanta estas helpo de homo.
12 But with you [helping us], we shall win; you will enable us to defeat our enemies.
Kun Dio ni faros heroaĵojn; Kaj Li dispremos niajn malamikojn.
