12Lord, you will give us peace: for all our works are the outcome of your purpose.
13O Lord, our God, other lords than you have had rule over us; but in you only is our salvation, and no other name will we take on our lips.
14The dead will not come back to life: their spirits will not come back to earth; for this cause you have sent destruction on them, so that the memory of them is dead.
15You have made the nation great, O Lord, you have made it great; glory is yours: you have made wide the limits of the land.
16Lord, in trouble our eyes have been turned to you, we sent up a prayer when your punishment was on us.
17As a woman with child, whose time is near, is troubled, crying out in her pain; so have we been before you, O Lord.
18We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have given birth to wind; no salvation has come to the earth through us, and no children have come into the world.
