2. You once favored, Lord, your land,restored the captives of Jacob.
3. You forgave the guilt of your people,pardoned all their sins.Selah
4. You withdrew all your wrath,turned back from your burning anger.
5. Restore us, God of our salvation;let go of your displeasure with us.
6. Will you be angry with us forever,prolong your anger for all generations?
7. Certainly you will again restore our life,that your people may rejoice in you.
8. Show us, Lord, your mercy;grant us your salvation.
