You gave us .But you raised a for those who you — a rallying point against the onslaught of arrows. .So rescue — save us with your and answer us.God has spoken from : “I will celebrate! I will carve up and measure out the for my people.”“ belongs to me. belongs to me. Ephraim is the . Judah is my .”“Moab is my . I to claim it. — shout in defeat before me!”Who will bring me to the ? Who will lead me all the way to Edom?God, haven’t you thrown us aside? You no longer .Give us against our enemy — human help is .With God we will , and he is the one who will .
