I looked, but there was no help.
I was astounded that there was no ⌞outside⌟ support.
So with my own power I won a victory.
My anger supported me.
In my anger I trampled on people.
In my wrath I made them drunk
and poured their blood on the ground.”

The Lord’s People Pray for His Help

I will acknowledge the Lord’s acts of mercy,
and ⌞sing⌟ the praises of the Lord,
because of everything that the Lord has done for us.
He has done many good things for the nation of Israel
because of his compassion and his unlimited mercy.

I trampled(D) the nations in my anger;
    in my wrath I made them drunk(E)
    and poured their blood(F) on the ground.”

Praise and Prayer

    the deeds for which he is to be praised,

yes, the many good things(H)
    he has done for Israel,
    according to his compassion(I) and many kindnesses.
