O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.

Psalms 60 Study & Commentary
Psalm 60 is a prayer after a national defeat, asking God to "give us help from trouble" because "vain is the help of man."
CONTEMPORARY APPLICATIONS
1. Vain is the Help of Man: Relying on human strength or alliances is ultimately futile (v. 11).2. Through God we shall do Valiantly: True courage and victory come from God’s power working through us (v. 12).
