Psalm 60

Revised Version 1895

1O God, thou hast cast usH5921 offH5921, thou hast broken usH5921 downH5921; thou hast been angry; O restore usH5921 againH3925.

2Thou hast madeH7725 the land to tremble; thou hast rent it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.

3Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast madeH6555 usH7725 to drink the wine of staggering.

4Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed becauseH3588 of the truth. Selah

5That thy beloved may be delivered, save with thy right hand, and answer usH7200.

6GodH5414 hath spoken in his holiness; I will exult: I will divideH5414 Shechem, and mete outH6440 the valley of Succoth.

7Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of mine head; Judah is my sceptre.

8Moab is my washpot; upon Edom will I cast my shoe: Philistia, shout thou because of meH1696.

9Who will bring me intoH3063 the strongH4581 city? who hath led me unto Edom?

10Hast not thou, O God, castH7993 usH5921 offH5921? and thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts.

11Give us help against the adversary: for vain is the help of man.

12ThroughH3318 GodH430 we shall doH3318 valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our adversaries.
