< Mazmur 60 >
1 Untuk pemimpin kor. Menurut lagu: Bunga bakung kesaksian. Mazmur pengajaran dari Daud, ketika ia memerangi orang Aram-Mesopotamia dan orang Aram-Zoba, dan ketika Yoab pulang dan mengalahkan 12.000 orang Edom di Lembah Asin. Engkau menolak kami, ya Allah, dan membiarkan kami dikalahkan. Engkau marah kepada kami; sekarang pulihkanlah kami.
For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “The Lily of the Covenant.” A teaching poem by David, when he fought with Aram Naharaim and with Aram Zobah, and Joab returned, and killed twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt. God, you have rejected us. You have broken us down. You have been angry. Restore us, again.
2 Engkau menggoncangkan bumi sehingga retak; perbaikilah yang pecah-pecah, sebab bumi goyah.
You have made the land tremble. You have torn it. Mend its fractures, for it quakes.
3 Kaubiarkan umat-Mu mengalami penderitaan berat; kami terhuyung-huyung seperti orang mabuk.
You have shown your people hard things. You have made us drink the wine that makes us stagger.
4 Kauberi peringatan kepada orang-orang takwa, supaya mereka luput dari hukuman.
You have given a banner to those who fear you, that it may be displayed because of the truth. (Selah)
5 Selamatkanlah kami dengan kuasa-Mu, jawablah doa kami, supaya orang-orang yang Kaukasihi diselamatkan.
So that your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand, and answer us.
6 Dari kediaman-Nya yang suci Allah berkata, "Aku mau bersorak dan membagi-bagikan tanah Sikhem; Lembah Sukot akan Kuundi.
God has spoken from his sanctuary: “I will triumph. I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.
7 Gilead dan Manasye adalah milik-Ku, Efraim topi baja-Ku, dan Yehuda tongkat kerajaan-Ku.
Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is the defence of my head. Judah is my sceptre.
8 Tetapi Moab adalah tempat pembasuhan kaki-Ku; Aku bersorak kemenangan atas Filistea. Kepada Edom Kulemparkan kasut-Ku sebagai tanda bahwa ia milik-Ku."
Moab is my wash basin. I will throw my sandal on Edom. I shout in triumph over Philistia.”
9 Siapa akan membawa aku ke Edom? Siapa menuntun aku ke kota berkubu itu?
Who will bring me into the strong city? Who has led me to Edom?
10 Ya Allah, tidakkah Engkau ikut bersama kami? Tidakkah Engkau maju bersama tentara kami?
Haven’t you, God, rejected us? You don’t go out with our armies, God.
11 Tolonglah kami terhadap musuh, sebab bantuan manusia tidak berguna.
Give us help against the adversary, for the help of man is vain.
12 Bersama Allah, kita akan gagah perkasa, Dialah yang mengalahkan musuh kita.
Through God we will do valiantly, for it is he who will tread down our adversaries.
