¶Lord God of armies, How long will You be angry with the prayer of Your people?
Let me not be put to shame, Lord, for I call upon You; Let the wicked be put to shame, let them be silent in Sheol.
You have put joy in my heart, More than when their grain and new wine are abundant.
You, Lord God of armies, the God of Israel, Awake to punish all the nations; Do not be gracious to any who deal treacherously in wrongdoing. Selah
You have made Your people experience hardship; You have given us wine to drink that makes us stagger.
God, why have You rejected us forever? Why does Your anger smoke against the sheep of Your pasture?
How long, Lord? Will You be angry forever? Will Your jealousy burn like fire?
Will You be angry with us forever? Will You prolong Your anger to all generations?
You have veiled Yourself with a cloud So that no prayer can pass through.
So now, our God, listen to the prayer of Your servant and to his pleas, and for Your sake, Lord, let Your face shine on Your desolate sanctuary.
The Lord will not be willing to forgive him, but rather the anger of the Lord and His wrath will burn against that person, and every curse that is written in this book will lie upon him, and the Lord will wipe out his name from under heaven.
