41. He gave them into the hands of the nations, and their foes ruled over them.
42. Their enemies oppressed them and subjected them to their power.
43. Many times he delivered them, but they were bent on rebellion and they wasted away in their sin.
44. Yet he took note of their distress when he heard their cry;
45. for their sake he remembered his covenant and out of his great love he relented.
46. He caused all who held them captive to show them mercy.
47. Save us, Lord our God, and gather us from the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praise.
48. Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Let all the people say, “Amen!” Praise the Lord.
