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!
O Diyos, itinakwil mo kami; nilupig mo kami; ikaw ay nagalit; ibalik mo aming muli sa aming kalagayan.
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).
Pinayayanig mo ang lupain; pinaghiwa-hiwalay mo ito; pagalingin mo ang pagkakasira nito, dahil ito ay nayayanig.
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].
Ipinakita mo sa iyong bayan ang mga matitinding bagay; pinainom mo sa amin ang alak na nagpapasuray.
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.
Nagbigay ka ng isang bandera sa mga nagpaparangal sa iyo para maipakita ito dahil sa katotohanan. (Selah)
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.”
Para silang mga minamahal mo ay masagip, sagipin mo kami ng iyong kanang kamay at sagutin ako.
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.
Ang Diyos ay nagsalita sa kaniyang kabanalan, “Ako ay nagagalak; hahatiin ko ang Shekem at ipamamahagi ang lambak ng Sucot.
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];
Sa akin ang Galaad, at sa akin ang Manases; sanggalang ko sa ulo ang Efraim; setro ko ang Juda.
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].”
Ang Moab ay aking hilamusan; sa ibabaw ng Edom ihahagis ko ang aking sapatos; sisigaw ako sa tagumpay dahil sa Filistia.
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]
Sino ang magdadala sa akin sa malakas na lungsod? Sino ang maghahatid sa akin sa 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].
Pero ikaw, O Diyos, hindi mo ba kami itinakwil? Hindi mo sinamahan sa laban ang aming hukbo.
11 [We need you to] help us when we fight against our enemies, because the help that humans can give us is worthless.
Tulungan mo kami laban sa kaaway, dahil ang tulong ng tao ay walang silbi.
12 But with you [helping us], we shall win; you will enable us to defeat our enemies.
Magtatagumpay kami sa pamamagitan ng tulong ng Diyos; yuyurakan niya ang aming mga kaaway.
