Psalms 60
David laments YHWH's rejection of Israel after defeats by Aram and Edom, describing the land as shaken and the people staggering from wine of confusion, yet pleads for deliverance with YHWH's right hand[1][2][3]. YHWH speaks of triumph over Shechem, Succoth, Gilead, Manasseh, Ephraim, and Judah as His, declaring Moab a washbasin, casting a shoe over Edom, and shouting over Philistia, concluding that with God Israel will do valiantly as He tramples foes[1][2][5].
