1You have rejected us, O God, and broken our defenses. You have been angry with us; now restore us to your favor.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!
2You have shaken our land and split it open. Seal the cracks, for the land trembles.2You have shaken the land and split it open. Heal its fissures, for it shudders.
3You have been very hard on us, making us drink wine that sent us reeling.3You have made Your people suffer hardship; You have given us wine to drink that made us stagger.
4But you have raised a banner for those who fear you— a rallying point in the face of attack. Interlude4You have given a signal flag to those who fear You, so that they can flee before the archers. Selah
5Now rescue your beloved people. Answer and save us by your power.5Save with Your right hand, and answer me, so that those You love may be rescued.
6God has promised this by his holiness : “I will divide up Shechem with joy. I will measure out the valley of Succoth.6God has spoken in His sanctuary:" I will triumph! I will divide up Shechem. I will apportion the Valley of Succoth.
7Gilead is mine, and Manasseh, too. Ephraim, my helmet, will produce my warriors, and Judah, my scepter, will produce my kings.7Gilead is Mine, Manasseh is Mine, and Ephraim is My helmet; Judah is My scepter.
8But Moab, my washbasin, will become my servant, and I will wipe my feet on Edom and shout in triumph over Philistia.”8Moab is My washbasin. I throw My sandal on Edom; I shout in triumph over Philistia."
9Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will bring me victory over Edom?9Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
10Have you rejected us, O God? Will you no longer march with our armies?10God, haven't You rejected us? God, You do not march out with our armies.
11Oh, please help us against our enemies, for all human help is useless.11Give us aid against the foe, for human help is worthless.
12With God’s help we will do mighty things, for he will trample down our foes.12With God we will perform valiantly; He will trample our foes.
