Psalms 60

1 [I prayed], “God, you have rejected us [Israelis]! Because you have been angry [with us], you have [enabled our enemies] to break through our ranks. [Please] enable us to be strong again!

Dios, nos has apartado de ti, nos has enviado en todas direcciones, has estado enojado; O vuelve a nosotros de nuevo.

2 [When we were defeated, it was as though] [MET] there was a big earthquake in our land that caused the ground to split open. So now, [just as only you can] cause the cracks in the land to disappear, [help our army to be strong again], because [it is as though] our country is (falling apart/being destroyed).

Con el poder de tu mano la tierra tiembla y se abrió; hazla fuerte de nuevo, porque se movió.

3 You have caused [us], your people, to suffer very much; [it is as though] you forced us to drink [strong] wine that caused us to stagger around [after we became drunk].

Has hecho que la gente vea tiempos difíciles; nos has dado el vino de aturdimiento para nuestra bebida.

4 But you have raised a battle flag for those who revere you in order that they can gather around it and not [be killed by the enemies’] arrows.

Da un lugar seguro a las personas que te temen, a dónde pueden huir de las flechas. (Selah)

5 Answer our [prayers] and enable us by your power [MTY] to defeat [our enemies] in order that we, the people whom you love, will be saved.”

Para que tus seres queridos puedan salvarse, deja que tu diestra sea mi salvación, y dame una respuesta.

6 [Then] God [answered my prayer and] spoke from his temple, saying, “Because I have conquered [your enemies], I will divide up [everything in] Shechem [city], and I will distribute it among my people [the land in] Succoth Valley.

Dios ha dicho en su lugar santo, me alegraré. Haré una división de Siquem, y el valle de Sucot será medido.

7 The Gilead [region] is mine; the [people of the tribe of] Manasseh are mine; [the tribe of] Ephraim is [like] my helmet [MET]; and [the tribe of] Judah is [like] the (scepter/stick [that I hold which shows that I am the ruler]) [MET];

Galaad es mío, y Manasés es mío; y Efraín es la fortaleza de mi cabeza; Judá es mi dador de leyes;

8 but the Moab [region] is [like] my washbasin [MET]; I throw my sandal in the Edom [area to show that it belongs to me]; I shout triumphantly because I have defeated [the people of] the Philistia [area].”

Moab es mi vasija para lavarme; sobre Edom pondré mi zapato; sobre Filistea sonará un alegre clamor.

9 [Because I want to defeat the people of] Edom, (who will lead my [army triumphantly] to their [capital] city that has strong walls around it?/I want someone to lead my [army triumphantly] to their [capital] city that has strong walls around it.)” [RHQ]

¿Quién me llevará a la ciudad amurallada? ¿Quién será mi guía en Edom?

10 So, God, we [desire/hope that] [RHQ] you have not truly abandoned us, and that you will go with us when our armies march out [to fight our enemies].

¿No nos has apartado, oh Dios? y no has salido con nuestros ejércitos.

11 [We need you to] help us when we fight against our enemies, because the help that humans can give us is worthless.

Danos ayuda en nuestro problema; porque no hay ayuda en el hombre.

12 But with you [helping us], we shall win; you will enable us to defeat our enemies.

Por medio de Dios haremos grandes cosas, porque a través de él nuestros enemigos serán aplastados bajo nuestros pies.
