To the chief Musician{H5329}{H8764)} upon Shushaneduth{H7802}, Michtam{H4387} of David{H1732}, to teach{H3925}{H8763)}; when he strove{H5327}{H8687)} with Aramnaharaim{H763}{H5104} and with Aramzobah{H760}, when Joab{H3097} returned{H7725}{H8799)}, and smote{H5221}{H8686)} of Edom{H123} in the valley{H1516} of salt{H4417} twelve{H8147}{H6240} thousand{H505}. O God{H430}, thou hast cast us off{H2186}{H8804)}, thou hast scattered{H6555}{H8804)} us, thou hast been displeased{H599}{H8804)}; O turn thyself to us again{H7725}{H8787)}.

Thou hast made the earth{H776} to tremble{H7493}{H8689)}; thou hast broken{H6480}{H8804)} it: heal{H7495}{H8798)} the breaches{H7667} thereof; for it shaketh{H4131}{H8804)}.

Thou hast shewed{H7200}{H8689)} thy people{H5971} hard things{H7186}: thou hast made us to drink{H8248}{H8689)} the wine{H3196} of astonishment{H8653}.

Thou hast given{H5414}{H8804)} a banner{H5251} to them that fear{H3373} thee, that it may be displayed{H5127}{H8710)} because{H6440} of the truth{H7189}. Selah{H5542}.

That thy beloved{H3039} may be delivered{H2502}{H8735)}; save{H3467}{H8685)} with thy right hand{H3225}, and hear{H6030}{H8798)} me.

God{H430} hath spoken{H1696}{H8765)} in his holiness{H6944}; I will rejoice{H5937}{H8799)}, I will divide{H2505}{H8762)} Shechem{H7927}, and mete out{H4058}{H8762)} the valley{H6010} of Succoth{H5523}.

Gilead{H1568} is mine, and Manasseh{H4519} is mine; Ephraim{H669} also is the strength{H4581} of mine head{H7218}; Judah{H3063} is my lawgiver{H2710}{H8781)};

Moab{H4124} is my washpot{H5518}{H7366}; over Edom{H123} will I cast out{H7993}{H8686)} my shoe{H5275}: Philistia{H6429}, triumph{H7321}{H8708)} thou because of me.

Who will bring{H2986}{H8686)} me into the strong{H4692} city{H5892}? who will lead{H5148}{H8804)} me into Edom{H123}?

Wilt not thou, O God{H430}, which hadst cast us off{H2186}{H8804)}? and thou, O God{H430}, which didst not go out{H3318}{H8799)} with our armies{H6635}?

Give{H3051}{H8798)} us help{H5833} from trouble{H6862}: for vain{H7723} is the help{H8668} of man{H120}.

Through God{H430} we shall do{H6213}{H8799)} valiantly{H2428}: for he it is that shall tread down{H947}{H8799)} our enemies{H6862}.
