Psalms 59

1 For the end, for them that shall yet be changed; for an inscription by David for instruction,
2 when he had burned Mesopotamia of Syria, and Syria Zobah, and Joab had returned and smitten in the Valley of Salt twelve thousand.
3 O God, thou hast rejected and destroyed us; Thou hast been angry, yet hast pitied us.
4 Thou hast shaken the earth, and troubled it; Heal its breaches, for it has been shaken.
5 Thou hast shown thy people hard things: Thou hast made us drink the wine of astonishment.
6 Thou hast given a token to them that fear thee, That they might flee from the bow. Pause.
7 That thy beloved ones may be delivered; Save with thy right hand, and hear me.
8 God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, and divide Shechem, And measure out the Valley of Tents.
9 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; And Ephraim is the strength of my head;
10 Judah is my king; Moab is the caldron of my hope; Over Edom will I stretch out my shoe; The Philistines have been subjected to me.
11 Who will lead me into the fortified city? Who will guide me as far as Edom?
12 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? And wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our forces?
13 Give us help from trouble: For vain is the deliverance of man.
14 In God will we do valiantly; And he shall bring to nought them that harass us.
