The Lord’s Kindness

Israel says, “I will look to the Lord for help.
    I will wait for God to save me;
    my God will hear me.
Enemy, don’t laugh at me.
    I have fallen, but I will get up again.
I sit in the shadow of trouble now,
    but the Lord will be a light for me.
I sinned against the Lord,
    so he was angry with me,
but he will defend my case in court.
    He will bring about what is right for me.
Then he will bring me out into the light,
    and I will see him set things right.

But as for me, I watch(A) in hope(B) for the Lord,
    I wait for God my Savior;
    my God will hear(C) me.

Israel Will Rise

Do not gloat over me,(D) my enemy!
    Though I have fallen, I will rise.(E)
Though I sit in darkness,
    the Lord will be my light.(F)
Because I have sinned against him,
    I will bear the Lord’s wrath,(G)
until he pleads my case(H)
    and upholds my cause.
He will bring me out into the light;(I)
    I will see his righteousness.(J)
