4Remember us, O Lord, because of the goodwill of Your people; Visit us with Your salvation,

Greek verse alignment unresolved

5So as to see it in the goodness of Your chosen ones; So as to be glad with the joy of Your nation, So as to praise You in the midst of Your inheritance.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

6We sinned with our fathers; We committed lawlessness; we acted wrongfully.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

7Our fathers did not understand Your wonders in Egypt; They did not remember the multitude of Your mercy, But rebelled when they went up to the Red Sea.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

8But He saved them because of His name, So they might know His power;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

9And He rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up; And He led them in the sea as though it were a desert.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

10He saved them from the hands of those who hated them, And redeemed them from the hand of the enemy;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

11So the water covered those who afflicted them; There was not one left among them.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

12Then they believed His words And sang His praise.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

13They were quick to forget His works; They did not wait for His counsel;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

14And they desired exceedingly in the desert, And tempted God in a waterless place.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

15So He gave them their request And fully satisfied their souls.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

16They also angered Moses in the camp, And Aaron the holy one of the Lord;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

17The earth was opened and swallowed Dathan, And buried the assembly of Abiram;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

18A fire kindled in their assembly; The flame burned up the sinners.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

19They made a calf in Horeb, And bowed down and worshiped the graven image;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

20Thus they changed their glory Into the likeness of a calf that eats grass.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

21They forgot the God who saved them, Who did great things in Egypt,

Greek verse alignment unresolved

22And marvelous things in the land of Ham, Fearful things at the Red Sea.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

23And He said He would destroy them Had not Moses His chosen one Stood among them in the destruction before Him, To turn away His wrath so as not to destroy them.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

24Then they despised the desired land; They did not believe His word,

Greek verse alignment unresolved

25But murmured in their tents; They did not listen to the Lord's voice.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

26So He raised His hand against them, To overthrow them in the desert;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

27And to overthrow their seed among the nations, And to scatter them among the countries.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

28They were consecrated to Baal-Peor, And ate sacrifices of the dead;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

29So they provoked Him with their ways of living, And destruction multiplied among them.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

30Then Phinehas stood among them and made atonement, And the destruction ceased;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

31And it was reckoned as righteousness to him From generation to generation forever.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

32They also provoked Him to anger at the water of Rebellion, And Moses was afflicted because of them;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

33For they embittered his spirit, And he spoke offensively with his lips;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

34They did not destroy the nations the Lord said to destroy,

Greek verse alignment unresolved

35But mingled with the nations And learned their works;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

36And they served their graven images, And this became a snare for them;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

37They also sacrificed their sons And their daughters to demons,

Greek verse alignment unresolved

38And shed innocent blood, The blood of their sons and daughters, Whom they sacrificed to the graven images of Canaan; So the land was polluted with their blood;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

39It was also defiled by their works; Thus they acted unfaithfully in their ways of living.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

40And the Lord was very angry with His people, And He abhorred His inheritance;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

41Then He delivered them into the hands of the nations, And those who hated them ruled over them.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

42Their enemies also afflicted them, And they were humbled under their hands.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

43He delivered them many times, But they rebelled against Him with their counsel, And were humbled by their transgressions.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

44And He saw them in their afflictions; He listened to their supplications,

Greek verse alignment unresolved

45And He remembered His covenant, And felt regret according to the multitude of His mercy;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

46So He aroused compassion for them Among all who made them captives.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

47Save us, O Lord our God, And gather us from the nations, So we may give thanks to Your holy name, And boast in Your praise.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

48Bless the Lord God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting. And all the people shall say, "Amen! Amen!"
