Prayer For Mercy

17 Wherefore shouldst thou suffer us to wander O Yahweh, from thy ways? Wherefore shouldst thou let us harden our heart past revering thee? Return thou for the sake of Thy servants, The tribes thou thyself hast inherited. 18 For a short time only, did thy holy people hold possession, - Our adversaries, trod down thy sanctuary! 19 We have become like those Over whom from age-past times, thou hast not ruled, Who have never been called by thy name!
