Have the workers of wickedness (A)no knowledge,
Who eat up My people as though they ate bread
And have not called upon God?
There they were in great [a]fear (B)where no [b]fear had been;
For God (C)scattered the bones of [c]him who encamped against you;
You (D)put them to shame, because (E)God had rejected them.
Oh, that (F)the salvation of Israel [d]would come out of Zion!
When God [e]restores His captive people,
[f]Let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
