1 The titil of the sixtithe salm. To the victorie on orgun, to Dauid hym silf.

2 God, here thou my biseching; yyue thou tent to my preyer.

3 Fro the endis of the lond Y criede to thee; the while myn herte was angwischid, thou enhaunsidist me in a stoon.

4 Thou laddest me forth, for thou art maad myn hope; a tour of strengthe fro the face of the enemye.

5 I schal dwelle in thi tabernacle in to worldis; Y schal be keuered in the hilyng of thi wengis.

6 For thou, my God, hast herd my preier; thou hast youe eritage to hem that dreden thi name.

7 Thou schalt adde daies on the daies of the king; hise yeeris til in to the dai of generacioun and of generacioun.

8 He dwellith with outen ende in the siyt of God; who schal seke the merci and treuthe of hym?

9 So Y schal seie salm to thi name in to the world of world; that Y yelde my vowis fro dai in to dai.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Psalm 60 lament?
Psalm 60 laments a national defeat -- 'thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us' (v.1) -- then shifts to God's own declaration of territorial claims over Shechem, Succoth, Gilead, Moab, and Edom (vv.6-8), closing with a plea for help since 'vain is the help of man' (v.11).
What does verse 8 mean by 'Moab is my washpot'?
It's God's own boastful claim of dominance over Moab and Edom, treating them as conquered territory used for the lowliest tasks, imagery connected to the victories described in 2 Samuel 8:12-13.
How does the psalm end?
It ends with confidence that comes only through God: 'Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies' (v.12).
