¹For the music director. According to “Lily of the Testimony.” A psalm (miktam) of David, useful for teaching, about the time he fought against Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and then Joab returned and killed 12,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. You, God, have rejected us! You have broken us; you have been angry with us; but now you have to welcome us back!

²You have sent earthquakes on our land and split it apart. Now heal the cracks, for the land is still having tremors.

³You have been very hard on your people; you gave us wine that made us stagger around.

⁴But you have given those who respect you the banner of truth to unfurl and rally around. Selah.

⁵Rescue those you love! Answer us, and save us by your power!

⁶God has spoken from his Temple: “Triumphantly I divide up Shechem, and portion out the Valley of Succoth.

⁷Both Gilead and Manasseh belong to me. Ephraim is my helmet, and Judah is my scepter.

⁸I will treat Moab as my washbasin; I will place my sandal on Edom; I will shout in triumph over Philistia.”

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

¹⁰Have you rejected us, God? Won't you lead our armies?

¹¹Please give us help against our enemies, for human help is worthless.

¹²Our strength is in God, and he will crush our enemies.
