5How longH5704H4100, O LORDH3068? Will You be angryH599 foreverH5331? Will Your jealousyH7068 burnH1197 likeH3644 fireH784?6Pour outH8210 Your wrathH2534 onH413 the nationsH1471 thatH834 do notH3808 acknowledge YouH3045, onH5921 the kingdomsH4467 thatH834 refuseH3808 to callH7121 on Your nameH8034,7forH3588 they have devouredH398 JacobH3290 and devastatedH8074 his homelandH5116.

8Do not holdH2142H408 pastH7223 sinsH5771 against us;let Your compassionH7356 comeH6923 quicklyH4118,forH3588 we are broughtH1809 lowH3966.9Help usH5826, O GodH430 of our salvationH3468,forH5921H1697 the gloryH3519 of Your nameH8034;deliver usH5337 and atoneH3722 forH5921 our sinsH2403,for the sakeH4616 of Your nameH8034.10WhyH4100 should the nationsH1471 askH559,“WhereH346 is their GodH430?”Before our eyesH5869, make knownH3045 among the nationsH1471Your vengeanceH5360 for the bloodshedH1818H8210 of Your servantsH5650.
