Псалтирь 60
1 Начальнику хора. На музыкальном орудии Шушан-Эдуф. Писание Давида для изучения, когда он воевал с Сириею Месопотамскою и с Сириею Цованскою, и когда Иоав, возвращаясь, поразил двенадцать тысяч Идумеев в долине Соляной. Боже! Ты отринул нас, Ты сокрушил нас, Ты прогневался: обратись к нам.
[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 Ты потряс землю, разбил ее: исцели повреждения ее, ибо она колеблется.
[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 Ты дал испытать народу твоему жестокое, напоил нас вином изумления.
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 Даруй боящимся Тебя знамя, чтобы они подняли его ради истины,
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 чтобы избавились возлюбленные Твои; спаси десницею Твоею и услышь меня.
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 Бог сказал во святилище Своем: “восторжествую, разделю Сихем и долину Сокхоф размерю:
[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 Мой Галаад, Мой Манассия, Ефрем крепость главы Моей, Иуда скипетр Мой,
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 Моав умывальная чаша Моя; на Едома простру сапог Мой. Восклицай Мне, земля Филистимская!”
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 Кто введет меня в укрепленный город? Кто доведет меня до Едома?
[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 Не Ты ли, Боже, Который отринул нас, и не выходишь, Боже, с войсками нашими?
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 Подай нам помощь в тесноте, ибо защита человеческая суетна.
[We need you to] help us when we fight against our enemies, because the help that humans can give us is worthless.
12 С Богом мы окажем силу, Он низложит врагов наших.
But with you [helping us], we shall win; you will enable us to defeat our enemies.
