8Do not remember against us the iniquities of our ancestors; let your compassion come speedily to meet us, for we are brought very low.
9Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of your name; deliver us, and forgive our sins, for your names sake.
10Why should the nations say, Where is their God? Let the avenging of the outpoured blood of your servants be known among the nations before our eyes.
11Let the groans of the prisoners come before you; according to your great power preserve those doomed to die.
12Return sevenfold into the bosom of our neighbors the taunts with which they taunted you, O Lord!
13Then we your people, the flock of your pasture, will give thanks to you forever; from generation to generation we will recount your praise.
