Psalm 60:4-6
Contemporary English Version

4 You gave a signal to those
    who worship you,
so they could escape
    from enemy arrows.[a]
5 Answer our prayers, God!
Use your powerful arm
    and give us victory.
Then the people you love
    will be safe.

6 Our God, you solemnly promised,
“I would gladly divide up
    the city of Shechem
and give away Succoth Valley
    piece by piece.
