O God,do not remain quiet;Do not be silentand, O God,do not be still.
To You, O LORD,I call;My rock,do not be deafto me, For if You are silentto me, I will becomelikethose who godownto the pit.
You have seenit, O LORD,do not keepsilent;O Lord,do not be farfrom me.
ArouseYourself, whydo You sleep,O Lord?Awake,do not rejectus forever.
The MightyOne,God,the LORD,has spoken,And summonedthe earthfrom the risingof the sunto its setting.
May our Godcomeand not keepsilence;FiredevoursbeforeHim, And it is verytempestuousaroundHim.
