"Listen to the painful cries of the prisoners! Use your great strength to set free those condemned to die!"

“Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee: According to the greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to death; ”
“Let the sighing of the prisoner come before you. According to the greatness of your power, preserve those who are sentenced to death.”
“The shadow of it covered the hills: and the branches thereof the cedars of God.”
“Let the cry of the prisoner come before you; with your strong arm make free the children of death;”
“Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die;”
Do not hold us accountable for the sins of earlier generations! Quickly send your compassion our way, for we are in serious trouble!
Help us, O God, our deliverer! For the sake of your glorious reputation, rescue us! Forgive our sins for the sake of your reputation!
Why should the nations say,“Where is their God?” Before our very eyes may the shed blood of your servants be avenged among the nations!
Listen to the painful cries of the prisoners! Use your great strength to set free those condemned to die!
Pay back our neighbors in full! May they be insulted the same way they insulted you, O Lord!
Then we, your people, the sheep of your pasture, will continually thank you. We will tell coming generations of your praiseworthy acts.
