Context of Psalms 60:5
3You have made Your people experience hardship; You have given us wine to drink that makes us stagger and fall. 4You have set up a banner for those who fear You [with awe-inspired reverence and submissive wonder—a banner to shield them from attack], A banner that may be displayed because of the truth. Selah. That Your beloved ones may be rescued, Save with Your right hand and answer us. 6God has spoken in His holiness [in His promises]: “I will rejoice, I will divide [the land of] Shechem and measure out the Valley of Succoth [west to east]. 7Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim is My helmet; Judah is My scepter.
