To the choir director: according to the lily of the testimony. A Michtam of David, for instruction, when he struggled with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and struck twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt
大卫与两河间的亚兰并琐巴的亚兰争战的时候，约押转回，在盐谷攻击以东，杀了一万二千人；那时大卫作这金诗，叫人学习；交与歌咏长，调用见证的百合花。

O God, You have rejected us; You have broken out upon us; / You have been angry. Restore us.
神啊，你丢弃了我们，使我们破败；你向我们发怒。求你使我们复兴。

You have caused the earth to quake; You have split it open. / Heal the breaks in it, for it totters.
你使地震动，而且崩裂。求你将裂口医好，因为地摇动。

You have shown Your people hard things; / You have made us drink wine to stagger us.
你叫你的民遇见艰难；你叫我们喝那使人东倒西歪的酒。

You have given a banner to those who fear You, / To be displayed because of the truth. Selah
你把旌旗赐给敬畏你的人，可以为真理扬起来。〔细拉〕

That Your beloved ones may be delivered, / Save with Your right hand, and answer us.
求你用右手拯救我们，应允我们，好叫你所亲爱的人得救。

God has spoken in His holiness: I will exult; / I will divide Shechem / And measure out the Valley of Succoth.
神已经在祂的圣别中说，我要欢乐；我要分开示剑，丈量疏割谷。

Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine, / And Ephraim is the helmet for My head; / Judah is My scepter.
基列是我的，玛拿西也是我的，以法莲是我的头盔；犹大是我的杖；

Moab is My washbowl; / Upon Edom I will cast My sandal; / Philistia, shout aloud because of Me.
摩押是我的沐浴盆；我要向以东抛鞋；非利士啊，你要因我欢呼。

Who will bring me into the besieged city? / Who will lead me to Edom?
谁能领我进被围困的城？谁能引我到以东地？

Will not You, O God, who rejected us / And who did not go forth, O God, with our armies?
神啊，你不是丢弃了我们么？神啊，你不和我们的军兵一同出战么？

Give us help from the adversary, / For a salvation by man is vain.
求你帮助我们脱离敌人，因为人的拯救是枉然的。

In God we will do valiantly, / And it is He who will tread down our adversaries.
我们因神才得奋勇行事，践踏我们敌人的就是祂。
