1To the choirmaster: according to Shushan Eduth. A Miktam* of David; for instruction; when he strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and when Joab on his return struck down twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt. O God, you have rejected us, broken our defenses; you have been angry; oh, restore us.2You have made the land to quake; you have torn it open; repair its breaches, for it totters.3You have made your people see hard things; you have given us wine to drink that made us stagger.4You have set up a banner for those who fear you, that they may flee to it from the bow.*5That your beloved ones may be delivered, give salvation by your right hand and answer us!6God has spoken in his holiness:* “With exultation I will divide up Shechem and portion out the Vale of Succoth.7Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet; Judah is my scepter.8Moab is my washbasin; upon Edom I cast my shoe; over Philistia I shout in triumph.”*9Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?10Have you not rejected us, O God? You do not go forth, O God, with our armies.11Oh, grant us help against the foe, for vain is the salvation of man!12With God we shall do valiantly; it is he who will tread down our foes.
King James Version
1To the chief Musician upon Shushaneduth, Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aramnaharaim and with Aramzobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand. O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.2Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.3Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.4Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.5That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.6God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.7Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;8Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me.9Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?10Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst cast us off? and thou , O God, which didst not go out with our armies?11Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.12Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
