Many are saying, “Oh, that we might see some good!”Lift up the light of Your face upon us, O Lord.

For our fathers did not possess the land [of Canaan] by their own sword,Nor did their own arm save them,But Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your presence,Because You favored and delighted in them.

Blessed [are] the people who know [the] joyful shout; O Yahweh, they walk about in the light of your countenance.

You have placed our wickedness before you,Our secret sins [which we tried to conceal, You have placed] in the [revealing] light of Your presence.
