1To the Chief Musician. Set to “Lily of the Testimony.” A Michtam of David. For teaching. When he fought against Mesopotamia and Syria of Zobah, and Joab returned and killed twelve thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt. O God, You have cast us off; You have broken us down; You have been displeased; Oh, restore us again!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.
2You have made the earth tremble; You have broken it; Heal its breaches, for it is shaking.2You have made the land quake, You have split it open; Heal its breaches, for it totters.
3You have shown Your people hard things; You have made us drink the wine of confusion.3You have made Your people experience hardship; You have given us wine to drink that makes us stagger.
4You have given a banner to those who fear You, That it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah4You have given a banner to those who fear You, That it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
5That Your beloved may be delivered, Save with Your right hand, and hear me.5That Your beloved may be delivered, Save with Your right hand, and answer us!
6God has spoken in His holiness: “I will rejoice; I will divide Shechem And measure out the Valley of Succoth.6God has spoken in His holiness: "I will exult, I will portion out Shechem and measure out the valley of Succoth.
7Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the helmet for My head; Judah is My lawgiver.7"Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the helmet of My head; Judah is My scepter.
8Moab is My washpot; Over Edom I will cast My shoe; Philistia, shout in triumph because of Me.”8"Moab is My washbowl; Over Edom I shall throw My shoe; Shout loud, O Philistia, because of Me!"
9Who will bring me to the strong city? Who will lead me to Edom?9Who will bring me into the besieged city? Who will lead me to Edom?
10Is it not You, O God, who cast us off? And You, O God, who did not go out with our armies?10Have not You Yourself, O God, rejected us? And will You not go forth with our armies, O God?
11Give us help from trouble, For the help of man is useless.11O give us help against the adversary, For deliverance by man is in vain.
12Through God we will do valiantly, For it is He who shall tread down our enemies.12Through God we shall do valiantly, And it is He who will tread down our adversaries.
