5. Awake therefore, Lord God of hosts,thou God of Israel,To visit heathen all: spare nonethat wickedly rebel.
6. At ev'ning they go to and fro;they make great noise and sound,Like to a dog, and often walkabout the city round.
7. Behold, they belch out with their mouth,and in their lips are swords:For they do say thus, Who is hethat now doth hear our words?
8. But thou, O Lord, shalt laugh at them,and all the heathen mock.
9. While he's in pow'r I'll wait on thee;for God is my high rock.
