Psalms

Chapter 59

1 For the end, for them that shall yet be changed; for an inscription by David for instruction,

2 when he had burned Mesopotamia of Syria, and Syria Sobal, and Joab had returned and smitten in the valley of salt twelve thousand.

3 O God, thou hast rejected and destroyed us; thou hast been angry, yet hast pitied us.

4 Thou hast shaken the earth, and troubled it; heal its breaches, for it has been shaken.

5 Thou hast shewn thy people hard things: thou hast made us drink the wine of astonishment.

6 Thou hast given a token to them that fear thee, that they might flee from the bow. Pause.

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

8 God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, and divide Sicima, and measure out the valley of tents.

9 Galaad is mine, and Manasse is mine; and Ephraim is the strength of my head;

10 Judas is my king; Moab is the caldron of my hope; over Idumea will I stretch out my shoe; the Philistines have been subjected to me.

11 Who will lead me into the fortified city? who will guide me as far as Idumea?

12 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our forces?

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

14 In God will we do valiantly; and he shall bring to nought them that harass us.
