14 Like animals going down into a valley,
    they were given rest by Ruach Yahweh.
        In this way you guided your people
            to make an honored name for yourself.

15 Look down and see from heaven, from your holy and beautiful dwelling.
    Where is your determination and might?
    Where is the longing of your heart and your compassion?
        Don’t hold back.
16 You are our Ab.
    Even though Abraham doesn’t know us
        and Israel doesn’t pay attention to us,
            O Yahweh, you are our Ab.
                Your name is our Go’el From Everlasting.

    or Israel acknowledge(H) us;
you, Lord, are our Father,
    our Redeemer(I) from of old is your name.
