Turn us again to yourself, O lord God of Heaven’s Armies.
Make your face shine down upon us.
Only then will we be saved.

So I let them follow their own stubborn desires,
living according to their own ideas.
13Oh, that my people would listen to me!
Oh, that Israel would follow me, walking in my paths!
14How quickly I would then subdue their enemies!
How soon my hands would be upon their foes!

Don’t you hear the uproar of your enemies?
Don’t you see that your arrogant enemies are rising up?
3They devise crafty schemes against your people;
they conspire against your precious ones.
