5 ^aYou have fed them with the bread of tears,
And given them tears to drink in great measure. ‡

6 You have made us a strife to our neighbors,
And our enemies laugh among themselves.

8 You have brought ^aa vine out of Egypt;
^bYou have cast out the¹ nations, and planted it. ‡

9 You prepared room for it,
And caused it to take deep root,
And it filled the land.
