Chapter 60 - Thou hast cast us off



1 O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.


2 Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.


3 Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.


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


Selah.



5 That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.


6 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.


7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;

8 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me.


9 Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom?

10 Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst cast us off? And thou, O God, which didst not go out with our armies?

11 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.


12 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
