O God, the nations have come into your heritage; they have made your holy Temple unclean; they have made Jerusalem a mass of broken walls.

I have made an agreement with the man of my selection, I have made an oath to David my servant;

You made valleys for fountains and springs; you made the ever-flowing rivers dry.

You have made me free from the fightings of the people; you have made me the head of the nations: a people of whom I had no knowledge will be my servants.

They have made ready a net for my steps; my soul is bent down; they have made a great hole before me, and have gone down into it themselves. (Selah.)

You had no desire for offerings of beasts or fruits of the earth; ears you made for me: for burned offerings and sin offerings you made no request.

O Lord, how great is the number of your works! in wisdom you have made them all; the earth is full of the things you have made.
