3O God, thou hast rejected and destroyed us; thou hast been angry, yet hast pitied us.
4Thou hast shaken the earth, and troubled it; heal its breaches, for it has been shaken.
5Thou hast shewn thy people hard things: thou hast made us drink the wine of astonishment.
6Thou hast given a token to them that fear thee, that they might flee from the bow. Pause.
7That thy beloved ones may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.
8God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, and divide Sicima, and measure out the valley of tents.
