1. O Lord, thou hast rejected us,and scatter'd us abroad;Thou justly hast displeased been;return to us,
2. The earth to tremble thou hast made;therein didst breaches make:Do thou thereof the breaches heal,because the land doth shake.
3. Unto thy people thou hard things hast shew'd,and on them sent;And thou hast caused us to drinkwine of astonishment.
4. And yet a banner thou hast giv'nto them who thee do fear;That it by them, because of truth,displayed may appear.
5. That thy beloved people maydeliver'd be from thrall,Save with the pow'r of thy right hand,and hear me when I call.
6. God in his holiness hath spoke;herein I will take pleasure:Shechem I will divide, and forthwill Succoth's valley measure.
7. Gilead I claim as mine by right;Manasseh mine shall be;Ephraim is of mine head the strength;Judah gives laws for me;
8. Moab's my washing-pot; my shoeI'll over Edom throw;And over Palestina's landI will in triumph go.
