(A)O you hope of Israel,
    its savior in time of trouble,
why should you be like a stranger in the land,
    like a traveler who turns aside to tarry for a night?
Why should you be like a man confused,
    (B)like a mighty warrior who cannot save?
Yet (C)you, O Lord, are in the midst of us,
    and (D)we are called by your name;
    (E)do not leave us.”

10 Thus says the Lord concerning this people:
“They have loved to wander thus;
    they have not restrained their feet;
(F)therefore the Lord does not accept them;
    (G)now he will remember their iniquity
    and punish their sins.”
