Make us rejoice for as many days as You have humbled us,
for as many years as we have seen adversity.

I wait for the Lord
more than watchmen for the morning—
more than watchmen for the morning.

Lord my God, You have done many things—
Your wonderful works and Your plans for us;
none can compare with You.
If I were to report and speak of them,
they are more than can be told.

That will please Yahweh more than an ox,
more than a bull with horns and hooves.

But I will hope continually
and will praise You more and more.
