15aLookdown from heaven and see from Your holy and gloriousbhabitation;Where are Your czeal and Your mightydeeds?The dtumultswithin You and Your compassion are restrainedtoward me.16For You are our aFather, thoughbAbraham does not know usAnd Israel does not recognize us.You, O Yahweh, are our Father,Our cRedeemer from everlasting is Your name.17Why, O Yahweh, do You acause us to stray from Your waysAnd bstiffen our heart from fearing You?cReturn for the sake of Your slaves, the tribes of Your inheritance.18Your holypeoplepossessed Your sanctuary for a littlewhile;Our adversaries have atroddenitdown.19We have becomelike those over whom You have never ruled,Like those who were not called by Your name.
