Dual Panel1For the leader: set to “The Lily of Testimony”: a miktam: for David: for instruction (when he fought against Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and struck twelve thousand Edomites in the valley of Salt) YOU HAVE rejected and crushed us, God. You have been angry; restore us.
2You have made the land quake and caused it to split open; repair its ruins, for it is shattered.
3You have made your people drunk with a bitter draught, you have given us wine that makes us stagger.
4But to those who fear you, you have raised a banner to which they may escape from the bow. [Selah]
5Save with your right hand and respond, that those dear to you may be delivered.
6God has spoken from his sanctuary: “I will go up now and divide Shechem; I will measure off the valley of Succoth;
7Gilead and Manasseh are mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my sceptre;
8Moab is my washbowl, on Edom I fling my sandals; Philistia, shout and acclaim me.”
9Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will guide me to Edom?
10Have you rejected us, God, and do you no longer lead our armies to battle?
11Grant us help against the foe; in vain we look to any mortal for deliverance.
12With God's help we shall fight valiantly, and God himself will tread our foes under foot.
