60:1 For the leader. Set to “Lily of Testimony.” A mikhtam of David for teaching about
60:2 when he fought with Aram-Naharayim and with Aram-Tzovah, and Yo’av returned and killed 12,000 from Edom in the Salt Valley:
60:3 God, you rejected us; you crushed us; you were angry; but now revive us.
60:4 You made the land shake, split it apart; now repair the rifts, for it is collapsing.
60:5 You made your people suffer hard times, had us drink a wine that made us stagger.
60:6 To those who fear you because of the truth you gave a banner to rally around, (Selah)
60:7 so that those you love could be rescued; so save with your right hand, and answer us!
60:8 God in his holiness spoke, and I took joy [in his promise]: “I will divide Sh’khem and determine the shares in the Sukkot Valley.
60:9 Gil‘ad is mine and M’nasheh mine, Efrayim my helmet, Y’hudah my scepter.
60:10 Mo’av is my washpot; on Edom I throw my shoe; P’leshet, be crushed because of me!”
60:11 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
60:12 God, have you rejected us? You don’t go out with our armies, God.
