10 Even when the wickedare treated with mercyin this land of justice,they do wrong and are blindto your glory, our Lord.
11 Your hand is raised and readyto punish them,but they don't see it.Put them to shame!Show how much you care for usand throw them into the fireintended for your enemies.
12 You will give us peace, Lord,because everything we have donewas by your power.
13 Others have ruled over usbesides you, our Lord God,but we obey only you.
14 Those enemies are now deadand can never live again.You have punished them—they are destroyed,completely forgotten.
15 Our nation has grownbecause of you, our Lord.We have more land than before,and you are honoured.
16 When you punished our people,they turned and prayedto you, our Lord.
