1 Tu nos rejeitaste e nos dispersaste, ó Deus; tu derramaste a tua ira; restaura-nos agora!2 Sacudiste a terra e abriste-lhe fendas; repara suas brechas, pois ameaça desmoronar-se.3 Fizeste passar o teu povo por tempos difíceis; deste-nos um vinho estonteante.4 Mas aos que te temem deste um sinal para que fugissem das flechas. Pausa5 Salva-nos com a tua mão direita e responde-nos, para que sejam libertos aqueles a quem amas.6 Do seu santuário Deus falou: "No meu triunfo dividirei Siquém e repartirei o vale de Sucote.7 Gileade é minha, Manassés também; Efraim é o meu capacete, Judá é o meu cetro.8 Moabe é a pia em que me lavo, em Edom atiro a minha sandália; sobre a Filístia dou meu brado de vitória! "9 Quem me levará à cidade fortificada? Quem me guiará a Edom?10 Não foste tu, ó Deus, que nos rejeitaste e deixaste de sair com os nossos exércitos?11 Dá-nos ajuda contra os adversários, pois inútil é o socorro do homem.12 Com Deus conquistaremos a vitória, e ele pisoteará os nossos adversários.

1 For the Chief Musician; set to Shushan Eduth. Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and struck of Edom in the Valley of Salt twelve thousand. O God you have cast us off, you have broken us down; You have been angry; oh restore us again.2 You have made the land to tremble; you have rent it: Heal its breaches; for it shakes.3 You have shown your people hard things: You have made us to drink the wine of staggering.4 You have given a banner to those who fear you, That it may be displayed because of the bow. Selah.5 That your beloved may be delivered, Save with your right hand, and answer us.6 God has spoken in his holiness: I will exult; I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defense of my head; Judah is my scepter.8 Moab is my washpot; On Edom I will cast my sandal: Philistia, shout because of me.9 Who will bring me into the strong city? Who has led me to Edom?10 Have not you, O God, cast us off? And you don't go forth, O God, with our hosts.11 Give us help against the adversary; For vain is the help of man.12 Through God we will do valiantly; For it is he who will tread down our adversaries.
