O Lord, Be Gracious to Us

33 (A)Ah, you destroyer,
    who yourself have not been destroyed,
you traitor,
    whom none has betrayed!
When you have ceased to destroy,
    you will be destroyed;
and when you have finished betraying,
    they will betray you.

O Lord, be gracious to us; (B)we wait for you.
    Be our arm every morning,
    our salvation in the time of trouble.
(C)At the tumultuous noise peoples flee;
    when you lift yourself up, nations are scattered,
and your spoil is gathered as the caterpillar gathers;
    (D)as locusts leap, it is leapt upon.
