New American Standard Bible 1995NET Bible
1For the choir director; according to Shushan Eduth. A Mikhtam of David, to teach; when he struggled with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and smote twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt. O God, You have rejected us. You have broken us; You have been angry; O, restore us.1For the music director; according to the shushan-eduth style; a prayer of David written to instruct others. It was written when he fought against Aram Naharaim and Aram-Zobah. That was when Joab turned back and struck down 12,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. O God, you have rejected us. You suddenly turned on us in your anger. Please restore us!
2You have made the land quake, You have split it open; Heal its breaches, for it totters.2You made the earth quake; you split it open. Repair its breaches, for it is ready to fall.
3You have made Your people experience hardship; You have given us wine to drink that makes us stagger.3You have made your people experience hard times; you have made us drink intoxicating wine.
4You have given a banner to those who fear You, That it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.4You have given your loyal followers a rallying flag, so that they might seek safety from the bow. (Selah)
5That Your beloved may be delivered, Save with Your right hand, and answer us!5Deliver by your power and answer me, so that the ones you love may be safe.
6God has spoken in His holiness: "I will exult, I will portion out Shechem and measure out the valley of Succoth.6God has spoken in his sanctuary: "I will triumph! I will parcel out Shechem; the Valley of Succoth I will measure off.
7"Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the helmet of My head; Judah is My scepter.7Gilead belongs to me, as does Manasseh! Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my royal scepter.
8"Moab is My washbowl; Over Edom I shall throw My shoe; Shout loud, O Philistia, because of Me!"8Moab is my washbasin. I will make Edom serve me. I will shout in triumph over Philistia."
9Who will bring me into the besieged city? Who will lead me to Edom?9Who will lead me into the fortified city? Who will bring me to Edom?
10Have not You Yourself, O God, rejected us? And will You not go forth with our armies, O God?10Have you not rejected us, O God? O God, you do not go into battle with our armies.
11O give us help against the adversary, For deliverance by man is in vain.11Give us help against the enemy, for any help men might offer is futile.
12Through God we shall do valiantly, And it is He who will tread down our adversaries.12By God's power we will conquer; he will trample down our enemies.
