Have you not rejected us, O God? O God, you do not go into battle with our armies.

For you, O God, hear my vows; you grant me the reward that belongs to your loyal followers.

and you, O Lord, demonstrate loyal love. For you repay men for what they do.

O God, you cause abundant showers to fall on your chosen people. When they are tired, you sustain them,

O God, you are aware of my foolish sins; my guilt is not hidden from you.

You know how I am insulted, humiliated and disgraced; you can see all my enemies.

For they harass the one whom you discipline; they spread the news about the suffering of those whom you punish.

Be my protector and refuge, a stronghold where I can be safe! For you are my high ridge and my stronghold.

I have leaned on you since birth; you pulled me from my mother’s womb. I praise you continually.

You destroyed the sea by your strength; you shattered the heads of the sea monster in the water.

You established the cycle of day and night; you put the moon and sun in place.

Rise up, O God, and execute judgment on the earth! For you own all the nations.

Then they will know that you alone are the Lord, the sovereign king over all the earth.

Protect me, for I am loyal! O my God, deliver your servant, who trusts in you!

Certainly O Lord, you are kind and forgiving, and show great faithfulness to all who cry out to you.

But you, O Lord, are a compassionate and merciful God. You are patient and demonstrate great loyal love and faithfulness.

Show me evidence of your favor! Then those who hate me will see it and be ashamed, for you, O Lord, will help me and comfort me.

You crushed the Proud One and killed it; with your strong arm you scattered your enemies.

The heavens belong to you, as does the earth. You made the world and all it contains.

You created the north and the south. Tabor and Hermon rejoice in your name.
