Psalm 60
Easy Reader Bible: Purple Letter EditionKJP 
To the chief Musician upon Shushaneduth, Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand.

1O God, You have been displeased, and rejected and scattered us; O LORD, return to us again. 2You have caused the earth to quake, and to split open; heal its fissures; for it trembles. 3You have shown Your people hardships; You have made us drink wine that makes us stagger. 4But to those who fear You, You have given a banner, that it may be unfurled as a rallying point, in honor and truth. Selah. 5That those You love may be rescued; saves by Your right hand, as you answer us.

6God has spoken from His sanctuary, “I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth. 7Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the strength of My head; Judah is My lawgiver. 8Moab is My washpot; over Edom will I cast out My shoe; over Philistia, shout in triumph because of Me.” 9Who will bring me into the fortified and besieged city? Who will lead me into Edom?

10Have You not abandoned us, O God? And will You, O God, no longer go out with our armies? 11Help us in our time of trouble; for help from man is a vain hope. 12Through God we shall do valiantly; for it is You Who shall trampled our enemies.

A Psalm of David.
