Holman Christian Standard BibleKing James Bible
1For the choir director: according to "The Lily of Testimony." A Davidic Miktam for teaching. When he fought with Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and struck Edom in the Valley of Salt, killing 12,000. God, You have rejected us; You have broken out against us; You have been angry. Restore us! 1To the chief Musician upon Shushaneduth, Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aramnaharaim and with Aramzobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand. O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.
2You have shaken the land and split it open. Heal its fissures, for it shudders. 2Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.
3You have made Your people suffer hardship; You have given us wine to drink that made us stagger. 3Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
4You have given a signal flag to those who fear You, so that they can flee before the archers. Selah 4Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
5Save with Your right hand, and answer me, so that those You love may be rescued. 5That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.
6God has spoken in His sanctuary:" I will triumph! I will divide up Shechem. I will apportion the Valley of Succoth. 6God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
7Gilead is Mine, Manasseh is Mine, and Ephraim is My helmet; Judah is My scepter. 7Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
8Moab is My washbasin. I throw My sandal on Edom; I shout in triumph over Philistia." 8Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me.
9Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom? 9Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
10God, haven't You rejected us? God, You do not march out with our armies. 10Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst cast us off? and thou, O God, which didst not go out with our armies?
11Give us aid against the foe, for human help is worthless. 11Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
12With God we will perform valiantly; He will trample our foes. 12Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
