Lord, how long will you look on? Rescue my soul from their destruction, my precious life from the lions.

Our God comes, and does not keep silent. A fire devours before him. It is very stormy around him.

God, why have you rejected us forever? Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture?

Will you be angry with us forever? Will you draw out your anger to all generations?

Pay back to our neighbors seven times into their bosom their reproach with which they have reproached you, Lord.

You will arise and have mercy on Zion; for it is time to have pity on her. Yes, the set time has come.

God of my praise, don’t remain silent,

For these are days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.”

Since it is a righteous thing with God to repay affliction to those who afflict you,

The nations were angry, and your wrath came, as did the time for the dead to be judged, and to give your bondservants the prophets, their reward, as well as to the saints, and those who fear your name, to the small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”

You, Yahweh, when you favored me, made my mountain stand strong; but when you hid your face, I was troubled.

I waited patiently for Yahweh. He turned to me, and heard my cry.

Why do you hide your face, and forget our affliction and our oppression?

You have done these things, and I kept silent. You thought that I was just like you. I will rebuke you, and accuse you in front of your eyes.

How long, God, shall the adversary reproach? Shall the enemy blaspheme your name forever?

Yahweh God of Armies, how long will you be angry against the prayer of your people?

God, don’t keep silent. Don’t keep silent, and don’t be still, God.

Yahweh, why do you reject my soul? Why do you hide your face from me?

This whole land will be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years.

therefore the Lord Yahweh says: “Surely in the fire of my jealousy I have spoken against the residue of the nations, and against all Edom, that have appointed my land to themselves for a possession with the joy of all their heart, with despite of soul, to cast it out for a prey.” ’

I don’t do this for your sake,” says the Lord Yahweh. “Let it be known to you: be ashamed and confounded for your ways, house of Israel.”

Then Yahweh’s angel replied, “O Yahweh of Armies, how long will you not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which you have had indignation these seventy years?”
