To the Overseer. -- `Concerning the Lily of Testimony,' a secret treasure of David, to teach, in his striving with Aram-Naharaim, and with Aram-Zobah, and Joab turneth back and smiteth Edom in the valley of Salt -- twelve thousand. O God, Thou hadst cast us off, Thou hadst broken us -- hadst been angry! -- Thou dost turn back to us.

2 H iciste temblar la tierra, la has hendido; Sana sus roturas, porque titubea.

4 H as dado a los que te temen bandera Que alcen por causa de la verdad. Selah

5 P ara que se libren tus amados, Salva con tu diestra, y óyeme.
