8 aO the Hope of Israel, his Savior in time of trouble,
Why should You be like a stranger in the land,
And like a traveler who turns aside to tarry for a night?
Why should You be like a stranger in the land,
And like a traveler who turns aside to tarry for a night?
9 Why should You be like a man astonished,
Like a mighty one awho cannot save?
Yet You, O Lord, bare in our midst,
And we are called by Your name;
Do not leave us!
Like a mighty one awho cannot save?
Yet You, O Lord, bare in our midst,
And we are called by Your name;
Do not leave us!
10 Thus says the Lord to this people:
a“Thus they have loved to wander;
They have not restrained their feet.
Therefore the Lord does not accept them;
bHe will remember their iniquity now,
And punish their sins.”
a“Thus they have loved to wander;
They have not restrained their feet.
Therefore the Lord does not accept them;
bHe will remember their iniquity now,
And punish their sins.”
11 Then the Lord said to me, a“Do not pray for this people, for their good.
12 aWhen they fast, I will not hear their cry; and bwhen they offer burnt offering and grain offering, I will not accept them. But cI will consume them by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.”
