5 Our Lord, will you keep onbeing angry?Will your angry feelingskeep flaming up like fire?
6 Get angry with those nationsthat don't know youand won't worship you!
7 They have gobbled upJacob's descendantsand left the land in ruins.
8 Don't make us pay for the sinsof our ancestors.Have pity and come quickly!We are completely helpless.
9 Our God, you keep us safe.Now help us! Rescue us.Forgive our sinsand bring honour to yourself.
10 Why should nations ask us,“Where is your God?”Let us and the other nationssee you take revengefor your servants who dieda violent death.
11 Listen to the prisoners groan!Let your mighty power save allwho are sentenced to die.
