My God, whom I praise, do not remain silent,
You are my God, and I will praise you; you are my God, and I will exalt you.
To you, Lord, I call; you are my Rock, do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if you remain silent, I will be like those who go down to the pit.
O God, do not remain silent; do not turn a deaf ear, do not stand aloof, O God.
See how your enemies growl, how your foes rear their heads.
“The Lord is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him.
“For a long time I have kept silent, I have been quiet and held myself back. But now, like a woman in childbirth, I cry out, I gasp and pant.
Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise.
He is the one you praise; he is your God, who performed for you those great and awesome wonders you saw with your own eyes.
