37. And they sacrifice their sons And their daughters to destroyers,
38. And they shed innocent blood--Blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they have sacrificed to idols of Canaan, And the land is profaned with blood.
39. And they are defiled with their works, And commit whoredom in their habitual doings.
40. And the anger of Jehovah Is kindled against His people, And He doth abominate His inheritance.
41. And giveth them into the hand of nations, And those hating them rule over them,
42. And their enemies oppress them, And they are humbled under their hand.
43. Many times He doth deliver them, And they rebel in their counsel, And they are brought low in their iniquity.
44. And He looketh on their distress When He heareth their cry,
45. And remembereth for them His covenant, And is comforted, According to the abundance of His kindness.
46. And He appointeth them for mercies Before all their captors.
47. Save us, O Jehovah our God, and gather us from the nations, To give thanks to Thy holy name, To glory in Thy praise.
48. Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age even unto the age. And all the people said, `Amen, praise Jah!'
