Now, my God, I pray, let Your eyes be open and Your ears attentive to the prayer of this place.

He does not withdraw His eyes from the righteous; but they are on the throne with kings, for He has seated them forever, and they are exalted.

I have called upon You, for You hear me, O Mighty God; extend Your ear to me, and hear my speech.

Rescue me in Your righteousness, and cause me to escape; extend Your ear to me, and save me.

i1 [A Song of Ascents.] i0 par Out of the depths have I cried out to You, O Jehovah;

Lord, hear my voice. Let Your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

And now, hear, O our God, the prayer of Your servant and his supplications, and cause Your face to shine on Your sanctuary that is desolate, for the sake of the Lord.

O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, give attention and act! Do not delay, for Your own sake, O my God. For Your city and Your people are called by Your name.

For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayers; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.

It may be that Jehovah your God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom his master the king of Assyria has sent to reproach the living God, and will reprove the words which Jehovah your God has heard. Therefore, lift up your prayer for the remnant that is left.

It may be that Jehovah will look on my affliction, and that Jehovah will repay me with good for his cursing this day.

But You have seen it, for You pay attention to trouble and provocation; to repay it with Your hand. The poor commits himself to You; You are the Helper of the fatherless.

Break the arm of the wicked and the evil one; investigate his wickedness, until You find no more.

O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? Will the enemy blaspheme Your name forever?

Arise, O God, plead Your own case; remember the daily reproaches of the fool.

and return upon our neighbors sevenfold into their bosom their reproach with which they have reproached You, O Lord.

Remember, O Lord, the reproachs of Your Servant, which I bear in My bosom, of all the many peoples,

with which Your enemies have reproached, O Jehovah, with which they have reproached the heel of Your Anointed.
