8. Do not punish us for the sins of our ancestors.Have mercy on us now;we have lost all hope.
9. Help us, O God, and save us;rescue us and forgive our sinsfor the sake of your own honour.
10. Why should the nations ask us,“Where is your God?”Let us see you punish the nationsfor shedding the blood of your servants.
11. Listen to the groans of the prisoners,and by your great power free those who are condemned to die.
12. Lord, pay the other nations back seven timesfor all the insults they have hurled at you.
13. Then we, your people, the sheep of your flock,will thank you for everand praise you for all time to come.
