Where are (C)your zeal and your might?
The stirring of your inner parts and your compassion
are held back from me.

though Abraham does not know us,

you, O Lord, are our Father,
(E)our Redeemer from of old is your name.

and (F)harden our heart, so that we fear you not?
(G)Return for the sake of your servants,
the tribes of your heritage.

(I)our adversaries have trampled down your sanctuary.
19 (J)We have become like those over whom you have never ruled,
like those who are not called by your name.
