| 1 | O GOD, thou hast forsaken us, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased with us; O turn thyself to us again. | O God, you have rejected us, broken our defenses; you have been angry; oh, restore us. | For the director of music. To the tune of “The Lily of the Covenant.” A miktam of David. For teaching. When he fought Aram Naharaim and Aram Zobah, and when Joab returned and struck down twelve thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt. You have rejected us, God, and burst upon us; you have been angry—now restore us! | |
| 2 | Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it; heal the breaches thereof, for it hath weakened. | You have made the land to quake; you have torn it open; repair its breaches, for it totters. | You have shaken the land and torn it open; mend its fractures, for it is quaking. | |
| 3 | Thou hast shown thy people hardships; thou hast made us to drink the dregs of wine. | You have made your people see hard things; you have given us wine to drink that made us stagger. | You have shown your people desperate times; you have given us wine that makes us stagger. | |
| 4 | Thou hast wrought a miracle to them that reverence thee, so that they need not flee from the bow. | You have set up a banner for those who fear you, that they may flee to it from the bow. Selah | But for those who fear you, you have raised a banner to be unfurled against the bow. | |
| 5 | That thy beloved may be prepared, save with thy right hand, and hear me. | That your beloved ones may be delivered, give salvation by your right hand and answer us! | Save us and help us with your right hand, that those you love may be delivered. | |
| 6 | God has spoken in his holiness: I will be strong, I will divide Shechem and mete out the valley of Succoth. | God has spoken in his holiness: “With exultation I will divide up Shechem and portion out the Vale of Succoth. | God has spoken from his sanctuary: “In triumph I will parcel out Shechem and measure off the Valley of Sukkoth. | |
| 7 | Gilead is mine and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of my head; Judah is my king. | Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet; Judah is my scepter. | Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah is my scepter. | |
| 8 | Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I levy tribute; over Philistia will I triumph. | Moab is my washbasin; upon Edom I cast my shoe; over Philistia I shout in triumph.” | Moab is my washbasin, on Edom I toss my sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph.” | |
| 9 | Who will lead me into Edom? Who will bring me into the strong city? | Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom? | Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom? | |
| 10 | For behold, O God, thou hadst cast us off, and thou didst not go before us with our armies. | Have you not rejected us, O God? You do not go forth, O God, with our armies. | Is it not you, God, you who have now rejected us and no longer go out with our armies? | |
| 11 | Give us strength against our enemies; for vain is the help of man. | Oh, grant us help against the foe, for vain is the salvation of man! | Give us aid against the enemy, for human help is worthless. | |
| 12 | Through God we shall do valiantly; for he it is who shall tread down our enemies. | With God we shall do valiantly; it is he who will tread down our foes. | With God we will gain the victory, and he will trample down our enemies. | |
