Psalms 60

DOUAI-RHEIMS	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Unto the end, for them that shall be changed, for the inscription of a title, to David himself, for doctrine,	1 Unto the end. With hymns, of David.
2 when he set fire to Mesopotamia of Syria and Sobal and Joab returned and slew of Edom, in the vale of the saltpits, twelve thousand men.	2 O God, pay attention to my supplication. Be attentive to my prayer.
3 O God, thou hast cast us off, and hast destroyed us; thou hast been angry, and hast had mercy on us.	3 I cried out to you from the ends of the earth. When my heart was in anguish, you exalted me on a rock. You have led me,
4 Thou hast moved the earth, and hast troubled it: heal thou the breaches thereof, for it has been moved.	4 for you have been my hope, a tower of strength before the face of the enemy.
5 Thou hast shewn thy people hard things; thou hast made us drink wine of sorrow.	5 I will dwell in your tabernacle forever. I will be protected under the cover of your wings.
6 Thou hast given a warning to them that fear thee: that they may flee from before the bow: That thy beloved may be delivered.	6 For you, my God, have listened to my prayer. You have granted an inheritance to those who fear your name.
7 Save me with thy right hand, and hear me.	7 You will add days to the days of the king, to his years, even to the time of generation after generation.
8 God hath spoken in his holy place: I will rejoice, and I will divide Sichem; and will mete out the vale of tabernacles.	8 He remains in eternity, in the sight of God. Who will long for his mercy and truth?
9 Galaad is mine, and Manasses is mine: and Ephraim is the strength of my head. Juda is my king:	9 So I will compose a psalm to your name, forever and ever, so that I may repay my vows from day to day.
10 Moab is the pot of my hope. Into Edom will I stretch out my shoe: to me the foreigners are made subject.
11 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
12 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go out with our armies?
13 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the salvation of man.
14 Through God we shall do mightily: and he shall bring to nothing them that afflict us.
