Howlong,O God,will the adversaryrevile,[And] the enemyspurnYour nameforever?
Becauseof the voiceof him who reproachesand reviles,Becauseof the presenceof the enemyand the avenger.
Return,O LORD,rescuemy soul;Saveme becauseof Your lovingkindness.
And returnto our neighborssevenfoldinto their bosomThe reproachwith whichthey have reproachedYou, O Lord.
Howlong,O LORD?Will You hideYourself forever?Will Your wrathburnlikefire?
"Whomhave you reproachedand blasphemed?And againstwhomhave you raised[your] voiceAnd haughtilyliftedup your eyes?Againstthe HolyOneof Israel!
And one saidto the mandressedin linen,whowas abovethe watersof the river,"Howlong[will it be] untilthe endof [these] wonders?"
and they criedout with a loudvoice,saying,"How long,O Lord,holyand true,will You refrainfrom judgingand avengingour bloodon thosewho dwellon the earth?"
