(A)O the Hope of Israel, his Savior in time of trouble,
Why should You be like a stranger in the land,
And like a traveler who turns aside to tarry for a night?
Why should You be like a man astonished,
Like a mighty one (B)who cannot save?
Yet You, O Lord, (C)are in our midst,
And we are called by Your name;
Do not leave us!

10 Thus says the Lord to this people:

(D)“Thus they have loved to wander;
They have not restrained their feet.
Therefore the Lord does not accept them;
(E)He will remember their iniquity now,
And punish their sins.”
