picture

1 O God, You have turned away from us. You have broken us. You have been angry. O heal us and turn to us again.

O God, You have cast us off; You have broken us down; You have been displeased; Oh, restore us again!

2 Y ou have made the land shake. You have torn it open. Heal it where it is broken, for it shakes.

You have made the earth tremble; You have broken it; Heal its breaches, for it is shaking.

3 Y ou have made Your people suffer hard things. You have given us wine to drink that makes us not able to walk straight.

You have shown Your people hard things; You have made us drink the wine of confusion.

4 Y ou have given a flag to those who fear You, so it may be seen because of the truth.

You have given a banner to those who fear You, That it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah

5 S ave us with Your right hand, and answer us, so Your loved ones may be set free.

That Your beloved may be delivered, Save with Your right hand, and hear me.

6 G od has said in His holy place: “I will be full of joy. I will divide Shechem and the valley of Succoth.

God has spoken in His holiness: “I will rejoice; I will divide Shechem And measure out the Valley of Succoth.

7 G ilead is Mine. And Manasseh is Mine. Ephraim is the covering for My head. Judah is My Law giver.

Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the helmet for My head; Judah is My lawgiver.

8 M oab is where I wash My hands. I will throw My shoe over Edom. Call out, Philistia, because of me.”

Moab is My washpot; Over Edom I will cast My shoe; Philistia, shout in triumph because of Me.”

9 W ho will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom?

Who will bring me to the strong city? Who will lead me to Edom?

10 H ave You not turned away from us, O God? And will You not go out with our armies, O God?

Is it not You, O God, who cast us off? And You, O God, who did not go out with our armies?

11 O give us help against those who hate us. For the help of man is worth nothing.

Give us help from trouble, For the help of man is useless.

12 W ith God’s help we will do well. And He will break under His feet those who fight against us.

Through God we will do valiantly, For it is He who shall tread down our enemies.
