Psalm 60 | New International Reader’s Version

For the director of music. For teaching. A miktam of David when he fought against Aram Naharaim and Aram Zobah. That was when Joab returned and struck down 12,000 people from Edom in the Valley of Salt. To the tune of ‘The Lily of the Covenant.’

1 God, you have turned away from us. You have attacked us. You have been angry. Now turn back to us!

2 You have shaken the land and torn it open. Fix its cracks, because it is falling apart.

3 You have shown your people hard times. You have made us drink the wine of your anger. Now we can’t even walk straight.

4 But you lead into battle those who have respect for you. You give them a flag to wave against the enemy’s weapons.

5 Save us and help us by your power. Do this so that those you love may be saved.

6 God has spoken from his temple. He has said, ‘I will win the battle. Then I will divide up the land around Shechem. I will divide up the Valley of Sukkoth.

7 Gilead belongs to me. So does the land of Manasseh. Ephraim is the strongest tribe. It is like a helmet for my head. Judah is the royal tribe. It is like a ruler’s sceptre.

8 Moab serves me like one who washes my feet. I toss my sandal on Edom to show that I own it. I shout to Philistia that I have won the battle.’

9 Who will bring me to the city that has high walls around it? Who will lead me to the land of Edom?

10 God, isn’t it you, even though you have now turned away from us? Isn’t it you, even though you don’t lead our armies into battle anymore?

11 Help us against our enemies. The help people give doesn’t amount to anything.

12 With your help we will win the battle. You will walk all over our enemies.

Kutsal Kitap Yeni Çeviri

60. Mezmur

Müzik şefi için - <<Antlaşma Zambağı>> makamında Davut'un öğretici Miktamı Davut'un Aram-Naharayimliler ve Aram-Sovalılar'la çarpıştığı ve Yoav geri dönüp Tuz Vadisi'nde on iki bin Edomlu öldürdüğü zaman

1 Bizi reddettin, parladın bize karşı, ey Tanrı, Öfkelendin; eski halimize döndür bizi!

2 Salladın yeri, yarıklar açtın; Onar çatlaklarını, çünkü yer sarsılıyor.

3 Halkına sıkıntı çektirdin, Sersemletici bir şarap içirdin bize.

4 Sancak verdin senden korkanlara, Okçulara karşı* açsınlar diye. Sela

5 Kurtar bizi sağ elinle, yardım et, Sevdiklerin özgürlüğe kavuşsun diye!

6 Tanrı şöyle konuştu kutsal yerinde: ‹‹Şekem'i sevinçle bölüştürecek, Sukkot Vadisi'ni ölçeceğim.

7 Gilat benimdir, Manaşşe de benim, Efrayim miğferim, Yahuda asam.

8 Moav yıkanma leğenim, Edom'un üzerine çarığımı fırlatacağım*, Filist'e zaferle haykıracağım.››

9 Kim beni surlu kente götürecek? Kim bana Edom'a kadar yol gösterecek?

10 Ey Tanrı, sen bizi reddetmedin mi? Ordularımıza öncülük etmiyor musun artık?

11 Yardım et bize düşmana karşı, Çünkü boştur insan yardımı.

12 Tanrı'yla zafer kazanırız, O çiğner düşmanlarımızı.
