Psalm 60

New Coverdale Version

O God, you have cast us out and scattered us abroad; * you have been so displeased; O turn unto us again.

You have made the land to quake and divided it; * heal the breaches in it, for it shakes.

You have made your people to drink a cup of bitterness; * you have filled us with wine that makes us stagger.

You have set up a banner for those who fear you, * that they may triumph because of the truth.

That your beloved may be delivered, * help me with your right hand and hear me.

God has spoken in his holiness: * “I will rejoice and divide Shechem, and parcel out the valley of Succoth.

Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; * Ephraim also is the helmet for my head; Judah is my scepter.

Moab is my wash pot; on Edom I will cast my shoe; * over Philistia will I shout in triumph.”

Who will lead me into the strong city? * Who will bring me into Edom?

Have you not cast us out, O God? * Will you not, O God, go out with our armies?

O be our help in trouble, * for vain is the help of man.

Through God we will do great acts, * for it is he who shall tread down our enemies.
