14. Those masters are now dead.Their ghosts will not rise from death.You decided to destroy them.And you destroyed any memory of them.
15. Lord, you multiplied the number of your people.You multiplied them and brought honor to yourself.You made the borders of the land wide.
16. Lord, people remember you when they are in trouble.They say quiet prayers to you when you punish them.
17. Lord, when we are with you,we are like a woman giving birth to a baby.She cries and has pain from the birth.
18. In the same way, we had pain.We gave birth, but only to wind.We don’t bring salvation to the land.We don’t make new people for the world.
