2For teaching. When he was fighting against Aram-naharaim and Aramzobah, when Joab came back, and put twelve thousand of the Edomites to death, in the Valley of Salt.
3God, you have put us away from you, you have sent us in all directions, you have been angry; O be turned to us again.
4By the power of your hand the earth is shaking and broken; make it strong again, for it is moved.
5You have made the people see hard times; you have given us the wine of shaking for our drink.
6Give a safe place to those who have fear of you, where they may go in flight from before the bow. (Selah.)
7So that your loved ones may be made safe, let your right hand be my salvation, and give me an answer.
8God has said in his holy place, I will be glad: I will make a division of Shechem, and the valley of Succoth will be measured out.
