Dagiti Salmo 60
1 O Dios, impalladawnakami; binuraknakami; nakaungetka; isublinakami manen.
[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!
2 Pinagkintayegmo ti daga; pinagbirrim daytoy; agasam dagiti ringngatna, ta aggingined daytoy.
[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).
3 Impakitam kadagiti tattaom dagiti nakaro a banbanag; impainummo kadakami ti arak a mangpadiwerdiwer.
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].
4 Nangtedka iti bandera kadagidiay a mangdaydayaw kenka tapno maiparang daytoy gapu iti kinapudno. (Selah)
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.
5 Tapno maispal dagidiay nga ay-ayatem, ispalennakami babaen iti makannawan nga imam ken sungbatannak.
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.”
6 Nagsao ti Dios iti kinasantona, “Agrao-akto; Bingayekto ti Sikem ken ibunongkonto ti tanap ti Succot.
[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.
7 Kukuak ti Galaad ken kukuak ti Manases; helmetko met ti Efraim; ken setrok ti Juda.
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];
8 Ti Moab ti palanggana a pagbuggoak; ipurruakkonto ti sandaliasko iti Edom; ipukkawkonto ti balligi gapu iti Filisteo.
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].”
9 Siasinonto ti mangipan kaniak iti natibker a siudad? Siasino ti mangidalan kaniak idiay Edom?”
[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]
10 Ngem sika, O Dios, saannakami kadi a linaksid? Saanka a kumuykuyog iti dangadang ti armadami.
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].
11 Tulongannakami kadagiti kabusormi, ta awan serserbi ti tulong ti tao.
[We need you to] help us when we fight against our enemies, because the help that humans can give us is worthless.
12 Agballigikami babaen iti tulong ti Dios; ibaddeknanto dagiti kabusormi.
But with you [helping us], we shall win; you will enable us to defeat our enemies.
