• Grieving over Defeat in Battle, and Prayer for Help.

  • 1 God, You have rejected us. You have broken us; You have been angry; restore us!
  • 2 You have made the land quake, You have split it open; Heal its cracks, for it sways.
  • 3 You have made Your people experience hardship; You have given us wine to drink that makes us stagger.
  • 4 You have given a banner to those who fear You, That it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah
  • 5 That Your beloved may be rescued, Save us with Your right hand, and answer us!
  • 6 God has spoken in His holiness: “I will triumph, I will divide up Shechem, and measure out the Valley of Succoth.
  • 7 “Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the helmet of My head; Judah is My scepter.
  • 8 “Moab is My washbowl; I will throw My sandal over Edom; Shout loud, Philistia, because of Me!”
  • 9 Who will bring me into the besieged city? Who will lead me to Edom?
  • 10 Have You Yourself not rejected us, God? And will You not go out with our armies, God?
  • 11 Oh give us help against the enemy, For rescue by man is worthless.
  • 12 Through God we will do valiantly, And it is He who will trample down our enemies.
