Psalm 60:1-Psalm 61:1 - Prayer In Difficult Times
1 By the power of your hand the earth is shaking and broken; make it strong again, for it is moved. 2 You have made the people see hard times; you have given us the wine of shaking for our drink. 3 Give a safe place to those who have fear of you, where they may go in flight from before the bow. (Selah.) 4 So that your loved ones may be made safe, let your right hand be my salvation, and give me an answer. 5 God 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.
6 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver; 7 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I put out my shoe; over Philistia will a glad cry be sounded. 8 Who will take me into the strong town? who will be my guide into Edom?
9 Have not you put us away, O God? and you have not gone out with our armies. 10 Give us help in our trouble; for there is no help in man. 11 Through God we will do great things, for through him our haters will be crushed under our feet.
1 Let my cry come to you, O God; let your ears be open to my prayer.
