Psalmorum 60
1 Psalmus In finem, Pro his, qui immutabuntur, in tituli inscriptionem David in doctrinam, cum succendit Mesopotamiam Syriam, et Sobal, et convertit Ioab, et percussit Edom in valle Salinarum duodecim millia. Deus repulisti nos, et destruxisti nos: iratus es, et misertus es nobis.
“To the chief musician upon Shushan'eduth, a Michtham of David, to teach, When he fought with Aram-naharayim, and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the Salt Valley twelve thousand [men].” O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast made a breach in us, thou hast been displeased: restore now unto us [thy favor].
2 Commovisti terram, et conturbasti eam: sana contritiones eius, quia commota est.
Thou hast caused the earth to quake; thou hast split it: heal her breaches; for she is moved.
3 Ostendisti populo tuo dura: potasti nos vino compunctionis.
Thou hast caused thy people to see hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of confusion.
4 Dedisti metuentibus te significationem: ut fugiant a facie arcus: Ut liberentur dilecti tui:
Thou hast given to those that fear thee a banner, to elevate themselves, because of the truth. (Selah)
5 salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me.
In order that thy beloved may be delivered: help with thy right hand, and answer me.
6 Deus locutus est in sancto suo: Laetabor, et partibor Sichimam: et convallem tabernaculorum metibor.
God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and the valley of Succoth will I measure out.
7 Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses: et Ephraim fortitudo capitis mei. Iuda rex meus:
Mine is Gil'ad, and mine is Menasseh; Ephraim also is the strong-hold of my head; of Judah are my chiefs;
8 Moab olla spei meae. In Idumaeam extendam calceamentum meum: mihi alienigenae subditi sunt.
Moab is my washpot; upon Edom will I cast my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou but over me.
9 Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam? quis deducet me usque in Idumaeam?
Who will bring me into the fortified city? who will lead me as far as Edom?
10 Nonne tu Deus, qui repulisti nos: et non egredieris Deus in virtutibus nostris?
Behold, it is thou, O God, who hast cast us off; and thou, O God, goest not forth with our armies.
11 Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione: quia vana salus hominis.
Give us help against the assailant; for vain is the help of man.
12 In Deo faciemus virtutem: et ipse ad nihilum deducet tribulantes nos.
Through God shall we do valiantly: and he it is that will tread down our assailants.
