Arise, O God, plead Your cause; remember Your reproaches that come from the foolish one all the day.

Help us, O God our Savior; for the glory of Your name, O Lord, deliver us; and be merciful to our sins, for Your name's sake.

Why should the heathen say, Where is their God? And let the avenging of Your servant's blood that has been shed be known among the heathen before our eyes.

And when the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land hear it, they shall compass us round about and destroy us from off the land: and what will You do [for] Your great name?

For My own sake I will do [this] for you, because My name is profaned; and I will not give My glory to another.

He shall give blessings truly to Jacob, and mercy to Abraham, as You swore to our fathers, according to the former days.

For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came to be through Jesus Christ.

Now I say that Christ Jesus has become a servant to the circumcision for the truth of God, in order to confirm the promises to the fathers,

and that the Gentiles might glorify God on behalf of His mercy, as it is written: "For this reason I will confess to You among the Gentiles, and I will sing praise to Your name."
