¹ To the chief musician. On the Lily of Testimony. A secret treasure of David, to teach; when he struggled with Aram-naharaim, and with Aram-zobah; when Joab returned, and struck twelve thousandof Edom in the Valley of Salt. O God! Youcast us off; You broke us; You who were angry; take us back.² You made the earth tremble; You tore it; heal its breaks, for it is shaking.³ You have shown Your people hardship; You made us drink the wine of trembling.⁴ You have given a banner to those who fear You, to lift it up because of the truth. Selah.⁵ Save with Your right hand and answer me, that Your beloved may be delivered.

⁶ God has spoken in His holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.⁷ Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim is the strength of My head; Judah is My lawgiver;⁸ Moab is My washpot; over Edom I will cast out My shoe; Philistia, shout in triumph.⁹ Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom?¹⁰ Have not You, O God, cast us aside? And will You not go forth with our armies, O God?¹¹ Give us help against our oppressor, for vain is the deliverance of man.¹² Through God we shall do mighty things; for He shall tread on our oppressors.
