Panalangin para Tulungan ng Dios

60 O Dios, itinakwil nʼyo kami at pinabayaang malupig.
    Nagalit kayo sa amin ngunit ngayon, manumbalik sana ang inyong kabutihan.
Niyanig nʼyo ang kalupaan at pinagbitak-bitak,
    ngunit nakikiusap ako na ayusin nʼyo po dahil babagsak na ito.
Kami na mga mamamayan nʼyo ay labis-labis nʼyong pinahirapan.
    Para nʼyo kaming nilasing sa alak, sumusuray-suray.
Ngunit, para sa aming mga may takot sa inyo, nagtaas kayo ng bandila bilang palatandaan
    ng aming pagtitipon sa oras ng labanan.
Iligtas nʼyo kami sa pamamagitan ng inyong kapangyarihan.
    Pakinggan nʼyo kami,
    upang kaming mga iniibig nʼyo ay maligtas.
O Dios, sinabi nʼyo roon sa inyong templo,
    “Magtatagumpay ako! Hahatiin ko ang Shekem at ang kapatagan ng Sucot
    para ipamigay sa aking mga mamamayan.
Sa akin ang Gilead at Manase,
    ang Efraim ay gagawin kong tanggulan[a]
    at ang Juda ang aking tagapamahala.[b]
Ang Moab ang aking utusan[c] at ang Edom ay sa akin din.[d]
    Sisigaw ako ng tagumpay laban sa mga Filisteo.”
Sinong magdadala sa akin sa Edom
    at sa bayan nito na napapalibutan ng pader?
10 Sino na ang makakatulong, O Dios, ngayong itinakwil nʼyo na kami?
    Ni hindi na nga kayo sumasama sa aming mga kawal.
11 Tulungan nʼyo kami laban sa aming mga kaaway,
    dahil ang tulong ng tao ay walang kabuluhan.
12 Sa tulong nʼyo, O Dios,
    kami ay magtatagumpay
    dahil tatalunin nʼyo ang aming mga kaaway.

Psalm 60(A)

For the Music Director. A Miktam of David to teach. To the melody of “Lily of the Testimony,” when he struggled with Aram Naharaim and with Aram Zobah and when Joab returned from striking down twelve thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.

O God, You have rejected us, You have scattered us;
    You have been displeased; take us back.
You have made the earth tremble; You have split it open;
    heal its breaches, for it shook.
You have shown Your people hard times;
    You have made us drink wine, causing us to stagger.
You have given a banner to those who fear You,
    that they may flee to it from the bow.[a] Selah

That Your beloved ones may be delivered,
    save with Your right hand and answer us.
God has spoken in His holiness:
    “I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem,
    and measure out the Valley of Sukkoth.
Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine;
    Ephraim also is My helmet;
    Judah is My scepter;
Moab is My wash basin;
    over Edom I will cast My shoe;
    shout the alarm, O Philistia, because of Me.”

Who will bring me into the fortified city?
    Who will lead me into Edom?
10 You, O God, have You not cast us off?
    And You, O God, did not go out with our armies.
11 Give us help from trouble,
    for the help of man is worthless.
12 Through God we will do valiantly,
    for He will tread down our enemies.

  1. Psalm 60:4 Or for the truth.

Psalm 60[a](A)

For the director of music. To the tune of “The Lily of the Covenant.” A miktam[b] of David. For teaching. When he fought Aram Naharaim[c] and Aram Zobah,[d] and when Joab returned and struck down twelve thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.(B)

You have rejected us,(C) God, and burst upon us;
    you have been angry(D)—now restore us!(E)
You have shaken the land(F) and torn it open;
    mend its fractures,(G) for it is quaking.
You have shown your people desperate times;(H)
    you have given us wine that makes us stagger.(I)
But for those who fear you, you have raised a banner(J)
    to be unfurled against the bow.[e]

Save us and help us with your right hand,(K)
    that those you love(L) may be delivered.
God has spoken from his sanctuary:
    “In triumph I will parcel out Shechem(M)
    and measure off the Valley of Sukkoth.(N)
Gilead(O) is mine, and Manasseh is mine;
    Ephraim(P) is my helmet,
    Judah(Q) is my scepter.(R)
Moab is my washbasin,
    on Edom I toss my sandal;
    over Philistia I shout in triumph.(S)

Who will bring me to the fortified city?
    Who will lead me to Edom?
10 Is it not you, God, you who have now rejected us
    and no longer go out with our armies?(T)
11 Give us aid against the enemy,
    for human help is worthless.(U)
12 With God we will gain the victory,
    and he will trample down our enemies.(V)
