1Woe to you who destroy, and you weren`t destroyed; and deal treacherously, and they didn`t deal treacherously with you! When you have ceased to destroy, you shall be destroyed; and when you have made an end of dealing treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with you.
2Yahweh, be gracious to us; we have waited for you: be you our arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.
3At the noise of the tumult the peoples are fled; at the lifting up of yourself the nations are scattered.
4Your spoil shall be gathered as the caterpillar gathers: as locusts leap shall men leap on it.
5Yahweh is exalted; for he dwells on high: he has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
6There shall be stability in your times, abundance of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge: the fear of Yahweh is your treasure.
7Behold, their valiant ones cry outside; the ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
