Psalm 60

¹O God, you have rejected us, broken our defenses; you have been angry; now restore us!

²You have caused the land to quake; you have torn it open; repair the cracks in it, for it is tottering.

³You have made your people suffer hard things; you have given us wine to drink that made us reel.

⁴You have set up a banner for those who fear you, to rally to it out of bowshot. Selah

⁵Give victory with your right hand, and answer us, so that those whom you love may be rescued.

⁶God has promised in his sanctuary: “With exultation I will divide up Shechem, and portion out the Vale of Succoth.

⁷Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet; Judah is my scepter.

⁸Moab is my washbasin; on Edom I hurl 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 out, O God, with our armies.

¹¹O grant us help against the foe, for human help is worthless.

¹²With God we shall do valiantly; it is he who will tread down our foes.

Psalm 61

¹Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer.

²From the end of the earth I call to you, when my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I;

³for you are my refuge, a strong tower against the enemy.

⁴Let me abide in your tent forever, find refuge under the shelter of your wings. Selah

⁵For you, O God, have heard my vows; you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

⁶Prolong the life of the king; may his years endure to all generations!

⁷May he be enthroned forever before God; appoint steadfast love and faithfulness to watch over him!

⁸So I will always sing praises to your name, as I pay my vows day after day.
