詩篇 60

1 神よなんぢわれらを棄われらをちらし給へり なんぢは憤ほりたまへり ねがはくは再びわれらを歸したまへ

For the leader. On shushan eduth. A michtam of David (for teaching), when he fought with Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and defeated twelve thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt. O God, you have spurned and broken us, routing us in your wrath – restore us!

2 なんぢ國をふるはせてこれを裂たまへり ねがはくはその多くの隙をおぎなひたまへ そは國ゆりうごくなり

You have shaken the land and cleft it; heal its tottering breaches.

3 なんぢはその民にたへがたきことをしめし 人をよろめかする酒をわれらに飮しめ給へり

You have made your people drink hardship, and given us wine of reeling.

4 なんぢ眞理のために擧しめんとて汝をおそるるものに一つの旗をあたへたまへり (セラ)

You have given those who fear you a banner, a rallying-place from the bow, (Selah)

5 ねがはくは右の手をもて救をほどこし われらに答をなして愛しみたまふものに助をえしめたまへ

for the rescue of your beloved. Save by your right hand and answer us.

6 神はその聖をもていひたまへり われ甚くよろこばん われシケムをわかちスコテの谷をはからん

God did solemnly swear: ‘As victor will I divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

7 ギレアデはわがもの マナセはわが有なり エフライムも亦わが首のまもりなり ユダはわが杖

Mine is Gilead, mine is Manasseh, Ephraim is the defence of my head, Judah my sceptre of rule,

8 モアブはわが足盥なり エドムにはわが履をなげん ベリシテよわが故によりて聲をあげよと

Moab the pot that I wash in, Edom – I cast my shoe over it, I shout o’er Philistia in triumph.’

9 たれかわれを堅固なる邑にすすましめんや 誰かわれをみちびきてエドムにゆきたるか

O to be brought to the fortified city! O to be led into Edom!

10 神よなんぢはわれらを棄たまひしにあらずや 神よなんぢはわれらの軍とともにいでゆきたまはず

Have you not spurned us, O God? You do not march forth with our armies.

11 ねがはくは助をわれにあたへて敵にむかはしめたまへ 人のたすけは空しければなり

Grant us help from the foe, for human help is worthless.

12 われらは神によりて勇しくはたらかん われらの敵をみたまふものは神なればなり

With God we shall yet do bravely: he himself will tread down our foes.
