< Psalmorum 60 >
1 In finem, pro his qui immutabuntur, in tituli inscriptionem ipsi David, in doctrinam, cum succendit Mesopotamiam Syriæ et Sobal, et convertit Joab, et percussit Idumæam in valle Salinarum duodecim millia. [Deus, repulisti nos, et destruxisti nos; iratus es, et misertus es nobis.
To him that excelleth upon Shushan Eduth, or Michtam. A Psalme of David to teach. When he fought against Aram Naharaim, and against Aram Zobah, when Joab returned and slew twelve thousand Edomites in the salt valley. O God, thou hast cast vs out, thou hast scattered vs, thou hast bene angry, turne againe vnto vs.
2 Commovisti terram, et conturbasti eam; sana contritiones ejus, quia commota est.
Thou hast made the land to tremble, and hast made it to gape: heale the breaches thereof, for it is shaken.
3 Ostendisti populo tuo dura; potasti nos vino compunctionis.
Thou hast shewed thy people heauy things: thou hast made vs to drinke the wine of giddines.
4 Dedisti metuentibus te significationem, ut fugiant a facie arcus; ut liberentur dilecti tui.
But now thou hast giuen a banner to them that feare thee, that it may be displayed because of thy trueth. (Selah)
5 Salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me.
That thy beloued may be deliuered, helpe with thy right hand and heare me.
6 Deus locutus est in sancto suo: lætabor, et partibor Sichimam; et convallem tabernaculorum metibor.
God hath spoken in his holines: therefore I will reioyce: I shall deuide Shechem, and measure the valley of Succoth.
7 Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses; et Ephraim fortitudo capitis mei. Juda rex meus;
Gilead shalbe mine, and Manasseh shalbe mine: Ephraim also shalbe the strength of mine head: Iudah is my lawgiuer.
8 Moab olla spei meæ. In Idumæam extendam calceamentum meum: mihi alienigenæ subditi sunt.
Moab shalbe my wash pot: ouer Edom will I cast out my shoe: Palestina shew thy selfe ioyfull for me.
9 Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam? quis deducet me usque in Idumæam?
Who will leade me into the strong citie? who will bring me vnto Edom?
10 nonne tu, Deus, qui repulisti nos? et non egredieris, Deus, in virtutibus nostris?
Wilt not thou, O God, which hadest cast vs off, and didest not go forth, O God, with our armies?
11 Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione, quia vana salus hominis.
Giue vs helpe against trouble: for vaine is the helpe of man.
12 In Deo faciemus virtutem; et ipse ad nihilum deducet tribulantes nos.]
