ArouseYourself, whydo You sleep,O Lord?Awake,do not rejectus forever.
"Becauseof the devastationof the afflicted,becauseof the groaningof the needy,NowI will arise,"saysthe LORD;"I will sethim in the safetyfor which he longs."
Stirup Yourself, and awaketo my rightAnd to my cause,my Godand my Lord.
YetYou have rejected[us] and broughtus to dishonor,And do not goout with our armies.
Arise,O LORD,in Your anger;Liftup Yourself against the rageof my adversaries,And arouseYourself for me; You have appointedjudgment.
O God,whyhave You rejected[us] forever?Why does Your angersmokeagainst the sheepof Your pasture?
Will the Lordrejectforever?And will He neverbe favorableagain?
Then the Lordawokeas [if from] sleep,Like a warriorovercomeby wine.
O LORD,whydo You rejectmy soul?[Why] do You hideYour facefrom me?
Awake,awake,puton strength,O armof the LORD;Awakeas in the daysof old,the generationsof longago.Was it not You who cutRahabin pieces,Who piercedthe dragon?
Jesus Himselfwas in the stern,asleepon the cushion;and they wokeHim and saidto Him, "Teacher,do You not carethat we are perishing?"
