40 Therefore the Lord’s anger burned against his people,
and he abhorred his own inheritance.(A)
41 He handed them over to the nations;
those who hated them ruled over them.(B)
42 Their enemies oppressed them,
and they were subdued under their power.(C)
43 He rescued them many times,
but they continued to rebel deliberately
and were beaten down by their iniquity.(D)

44 When he heard their cry,
he took note of their distress,(E)
45 remembered his covenant with them,
and relented according to the abundance
of his faithful love.(F)
46 He caused them to be pitied
before all their captors.(G)

47 Save us, Lord our God,
and gather us from the nations,
so that we may give thanks to your holy name
and rejoice in your praise.(H)

48 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting.(I)
Let all the people say, “Amen!”
Hallelujah!(J)
