Psalms 60

1 To the Overseer. — 'Concerning the Lily of Testimony,' a secret treasure of David, to teach, in his striving with Aram-Naharaim, and with Aram-Zobah, and Joab turneth back and smiteth Edom in the valley of Salt — twelve thousand. O God, Thou hadst cast us off, Thou hadst broken us — hadst been angry! — Thou dost turn back to us.

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 Thou hast caused the land to tremble, Thou hast broken it, Heal its breaches, for it hath moved.

你使地震動，而且崩裂； 求你將裂口醫好，因為地搖動。

3 Thou hast shewn Thy people a hard thing, Thou hast caused us to drink wine of trembling.

你叫你的民遇見艱難； 你叫我們喝那使人東倒西歪的酒。

4 Thou hast given to those fearing thee an ensign. To be lifted up as an ensign Because of truth. (Selah)

你把旌旗賜給敬畏你的人， 可以為真理揚起來。 (細拉)

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

求你應允我們，用右手拯救我們， 好叫你所親愛的人得救。

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

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

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 Moab [is] my pot for washing, over Edom I cast my shoe, Shout, concerning me, O Philistia.

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 Who doth bring me [to] a city of bulwarks? Who hath led me unto Edom?

誰能領我進堅固城？ 誰能引我到以東地？

10 Is it not Thou, O God? hast Thou cast us off? And dost Thou not go forth, O God, with our hosts!

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

求你幫助我們攻擊敵人， 因為人的幫助是枉然的。

12 In God we do mightily, And He treadeth down our adversaries!

我們倚靠上帝才得施展大能， 因為踐踏我們敵人的就是他。
