Psalms 60 (We Don’t Deserve it, But Please Lead us!)

Psalms Chapter 60

We Don’t Deserve it, But Please Lead us!
Listen to "Psalms 60 (Please lead our army, though we do not deserve it)" on Spreaker.

For the end, for them that shall yet be changed; for an inscription by David for instruction, when he had burned Mesopotamia of Syria, and Syria Sobal, and Joab had returned and smitten in the valley of salt twelve thousand.

1 O God, thou hast rejected and destroyed us; thou hast been angry, yet hast pitied us. 2 Thou hast shaken the earth, and troubled it; heal its breaches, for it has been shaken. 3 Thou hast shewn thy people hard things: thou hast made us drink the wine of astonishment. 4 Thou hast given a token to them that fear thee, that they might flee from the bow. Pause. 5 That thy beloved ones may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.

6 God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, and divide Sicima, and measure out the valley of tents. 7 Galaad is mine, and Manasse is mine; and Ephraim is the strength of my head; 8 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.

9 Who will lead me into the fortified city? who will guide me as far as Idumea? 10 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our forces? 11 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the deliverance of man. 12 In God will we do valiantly; and he shall bring to nought them that harass us.
