⁶ Will you not ^(A)revive us again,
    that your people may ^(B)rejoice in you?

² After two days ^(A)he will revive us;
    on the third day he will raise us up,
    that we may live before him.
^3 (B)Let us know; ^(C)let us press on to know the Lord;
    ^(D)his going out is sure as the dawn;
he will come to us ^(E)as the showers,
    ^(F)as the spring rains that water the earth.”

³² but, though he ^(A)cause grief, ^(B)he will have compassion
    ^(C)according to the abundance of his steadfast love;

^15 (A)Look down from heaven and see,
    ^(B)from your holy and beautiful^[a] habitation.
Where are ^(C)your zeal and your might?
    The stirring of your inner parts and your compassion
    are held back from me.
¹⁶ For ^(D)you are our Father,
    though Abraham does not know us,
    and Israel does not acknowledge us;
you, O Lord, are our Father,
    ^(E)our Redeemer from of old is your name.
¹⁷ O Lord, why do you make us wander from your ways
    and ^(F)harden our heart, so that we fear you not?
^(G)Return for the sake of your servants,
    the tribes of your heritage.
^18 (H)Your holy people held possession for a little while;^{[b]
    (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.

^13 (A)Return, O Lord! ^(B)How long?
    Have ^(C)pity on your servants!
¹⁴ Satisfy us in the ^(D)morning with your steadfast love,
    that we may ^(E)rejoice and be glad all our days.
¹⁵ Make us glad for as many days as you have ^(F)afflicted us,
    and for as many years as we have seen evil.
¹⁶ Let your ^(G)work be shown to your servants,
    and your glorious power to their children.
¹⁷ Let the ^(H)favor^[a] of the Lord our God be upon us,
    and establish ^(I)the work of our hands upon us;
    yes, establish the work of our hands!
