Hath GOD, forgotten to show favour? Or hath he shut up, in anger, his compassions? Selah.

O God, in the sanctuary, is thy way, - Who is a great GOD like Elohim?

Thou, art GOD, doing wonderfully, - Thou hast made known, among the peoples, thy might;

The waters saw thee, O God, The waters saw thee, They were in birth-throes, Yea the resounding deeps were stirred;

And not become, like their fathers, a generation stubborn and rebellious, - A generation that fixed not their heart, Neither was their spirit, faithful with GOD.

They kept not the covenant of God, And, in his law, refused to walk;

They put GOD to the proof in their heart, By asking food to their mind:

Yea they spake against Elohim, - They said, Can GOD prepare a table in the desert?

Because, They believed not in God, Nor trusted in his salvation;

When, the anger of God, mounted against them, And he slew of their vigorous youths, And, the choice young men of Israel, caused he to bow down in death.

If he slew of them, then they sought him, Yea they turned, and did earnestly seek GOD;

Yea they again put GOD to the test, And, to the Holy One of Israel, caused they sorrow:

But they tested and resisted God Most High, And, his testimonies, did not observe;

God heard and was wroth, And greatly abhorred Israel;

O God, nations, Have entered thine inheritance, Have profaned thy holy temple, - Have laid Jerusalem in heaps:

Help us, O God of our salvation, on account of the glory of thy Name, - Rescue us then, and put a propitiatory-covering over our sins, For the sake of thy Name.

Wherefore should the nations say - Where is their God? Let him be known among the nations before our eyes! Yea! By the avenging of the blood of thy servants which hath been shed!

O God, bring us back, And light up thy face, That we may be saved.

O Yahweh, God of hosts! How long hast thou been wroth with the prayer of thy people?

O God of hosts, bring us back, And light up thy face, That we may be saved.
