Prayer For Mercy

17 Why, Yahweh, do You make us stray from Your ways?
You harden our hearts so we do not fear You.
Return, because of Your servants,
the tribes of Your heritage.
18 Your holy people had a possession
for a little while,
but our enemies have trampled down
Your sanctuary.
19 We have become like those You never ruled over,
like those not called by Your name.
