Psalms 60

Urgent Prayer for the Restored Favor of God

1O God, You have cast us off;[#Ps. 44:9]

You have broken us down;

You have been displeased;

Oh, restore us again!

2You have made the earth tremble;

You have broken it;

Heal its breaches, for it is shaking.

3You have shown Your people hard things;[#Ps. 71:20]

You have made us drink the wine of confusion.

4You have given a banner to those who fear You,[#Ps. 20:5; Is. 5:26; 11:12; 13:2]

That it may be displayed because of the truth.

Selah

5That Your beloved may be delivered,[#Ps. 108:6–13]

Save with Your right hand, and hear me.

6God has spoken in His holiness:[#Ps. 89:35]

“I will rejoice;

I will divide Shechem

And measure out the Valley of Succoth.

7Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine;

Ephraim also is the helmet for My head;

Judah is My lawgiver.

8Moab is My washpot;[#2 Sam. 8:2]

Over Edom I will cast My shoe;

Philistia, shout in triumph because of Me.”

9Who will bring me to the strong city?

Who will lead me to Edom?

10Is it not You, O God, who cast us off?[#Ps. 108:11]

And You, O God, who did not go out with our armies?

11Give us help from trouble,

For the help of man is useless.

12Through God we will do valiantly,[#Num. 24:18]

For it is He who shall tread down our enemies.
