Translation

1. To the chief Musician, according to Shushan-Eduth, A Miktam of David, to teach;
2. When he strove with Aram-Naharaim and with Aram-Zobah, when Joab returned, and struck twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt.
3. O God, you have cast us off, you have scattered us, you have been angry; O turn yourself to us again.
4. You have made the earth tremble; you have broken it; heal its breaches; for it totters.
5. You have shown your people hard things; you have made us drink the wine of staggering.
6. You have given a banner to those who fear you, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
7. That your beloved ones may be saved; save with your right hand, and answer me.
8. God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and measure out the Valley of Succoth.
9. Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of my head; Judah is my scepter;
10. Moab is my washbasin; over Edom I will cast my shoe; over Philistia I shout in triumph.
11. Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
12. Have you not rejected us, O God, so that you do not go forth with our armies?
13. Give us help against the enemy; for vain is the help of man.
14. Through God we shall do bravely; for he it is who shall trample down our enemies.
