He Will Tread Down Our Foes
To the choirmaster: according to 60:0 Ps. 80, title Shushan Eduth. A 60:0 See Ps. 16, title Miktam60:1 Probably musical or liturgical terms of David; 60:0 Deut. 31:19for instruction; when he 60:0 [2 Sam. 8:3, 13, 14; 10:16; 1 Chr. 18:3, 12]strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and when Joab on his return struck down twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt.

1O God, 60:1 ver. 10; See Ps. 44:9you have rejected us, 60:1 [2 Sam. 5:20] broken our defenses;
you have been angry; 60:1 See Ps. 80:3oh, restore us.
2You have made the land to quake; you have torn it open;
60:2 [2 Chr. 7:14]repair its breaches, for it totters.
360:3 Ps. 71:20You have made your people see hard things;
60:3 Job 21:20you have given us 60:3 Isa. 51:17, 22wine to drink that made us stagger.

4You have set up 60:4 Isa. 5:26; 11:12; 13:2; [Ps. 20:5] a banner for those who fear you,
that they may flee to it 60:4 Prov. 22:21from the bow.60:4 Or that it may be displayed because of truthSelah
560:5 For ver. 5-12, see Ps. 108:6-13That your 60:5 Deut. 33:12; Jer. 11:15beloved ones may be delivered,
give salvation by your right hand and answer us!

6God has spoken 60:6 Ps. 89:35; Amos 4:2in his holiness:60:6 Or sanctuary
“With exultation 60:6 [Josh. 1:6] I will divide up 60:6 Gen. 12:6; 33:18; Josh. 17:7Shechem
and portion out the Vale of 60:6 Gen. 33:17; Josh. 13:27Succoth.
760:7 Josh. 13:31Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine;
60:7 Deut. 33:17Ephraim is 60:7 Ps. 140:7my helmet;
Judah is my 60:7 Gen. 49:10scepter.
860:8 [2 Sam. 8:2] Moab is my washbasin;
upon Edom I 60:8 [Matt. 3:11] cast my shoe;
over 60:8 [2 Sam. 8:1]Philistia I shout in triumph.”60:8 Revocalization (compare Psalm 108:10); Masoretic Text over me, O Philistia, shout in triumph

9Who will bring me to the fortified city?
60:9 [2 Sam. 8:14]Who will lead me to Edom?
10Have you not 60:10 ver. 1rejected us, O God?
You 60:10 See Ps. 44:9do not go forth, O God, with our armies.
11Oh, grant us help against the foe,
for 60:11 [Ps. 146:3]vain is the salvation of man!
12With God we shall 60:12 Ps. 108:13; 118:15, 16; Num. 24:18do valiantly;
it is he who will 60:12 Ps. 44:5; Isa. 63:3tread down our foes.
